Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

Reptile Basics Racks-how good are they?
Just wondering if anyone has used these racks? They seem to be appropriate for folks with smaller collections and not very costly. But are they any good?

I have never used one but they do look nice, to me it would depend on what you are keeping, from what I read the tubs are only 4" deep and I prefer 7". Id be afraid my leos even babies would get out of 4" if they got on top of the hide they could reach the top and sneak out. Then againt he tubs may fit tight enough so that it not an issue.
Sorry Im no help, just my thoughts on tub size.

I bought a 12 hole Iris showbox at Daytona just to carry all of my purchases home in. Once home and fired up it's more like a 10 hole because the bottom shelf doesn't seem to have heat tape all the way down. What do ya want from a $100 rack though.

Reptile Basics - Good racks
I have a Reptile Basics sweater box rack. It is very well constructed - certainly no less than AP (also have one of theirs). I met Rich, and he seems like a decent guy. I like that RB has a four box rack for what many others charge for a three box rack. No problems with heat on the bottom shelf on mine. I have only had it about 2 months, but will certainly look at them again when I need another.

We bought a reptile basics 12 box rack for the university where I work. This is the only rack I have bought instead of built so I don't have a comparison, but the spacing of the rack was not very tight. When it came in the middle two shelves had a gap of nearly 1/4" between the shelf and the top of the tub. I had to use spacers to keep our hatchling corns in. Also the material is a bit thin so the shelves have begun to sag even though the tubs are not very heavy. It is still useable though, and the heat works, so what could I expect for such an inexpensive rack. You get what you pay for in this instance.
