Great vid, I really love to see people working with a huge variety of geckos that don't get enough love in the hobby! I did want to add though that I feel like the people that watch your vids don't care about there being fancy inserts or an entertaining script. Just you talking about your process and passing on the abundance of wisdom you have is already enough. I could be wrong though and if it's how you love to do your vids then by all means. Just wanted to put in my two cents after having watched some older and more recent vids of yours. Again, thanks for making these and showing off your amazing collection and knowledge! (Ps: So glad to see cave geckos, in particular, making a comeback! Japanese cave geckos are some of the most beautiful naturally colored geckos I've ever seen.)
Thank you for the wonderful feedback. I really appreciate this. It's always difficult to balance the 'press record and just let it flow' vs. the '8 hours of editting' videos. I enjoy the editing (don't enjoy the time it consumes though). Thanks!
@@SupremeGecko I understand that completely! I'm glad you're enjoying putting out vids. Seeing your progress and tactics for caring for these various gecko species is very captivating so I hope you don't stop anytime soon. Also I just got myself a sub-adult Binoei and your care video really helped me out!

These look GREAT and what a great price! My only advice, or little thing I would adjust is installing some kind of system to tie these wheeled racks to the wall. JUST in case. Keep it from wheeling off on its own or tipping over. A couple of eye-hooks in the wall and a couple of carabiners on the rack itself will do the job. Again, these look GREAT
I'm a pretty heavy guy and I would venture to say I could take a Dick Butkus run at the rack and it's not goin' down ( I am sure I would though!). And, I WANT it moving! From the video, this is sitting in front of our bug room door. When we go into the room every other day, I'll roll this rack a foot out of the way. But, good ideas.
Excellent Video Wally the Racks and tubs are Awesome Very Good Price For Everything!!! I also see you’re making Nanette Slave away again careful one day she’s going to attack!!!
Great video and definitely helpful I’m always shuffling things around and doing upgrades. But I’m always building new racks to make more room and expanding.
wow what a great video I think that it looks great I like how cheap the cost can be when you think out side the box a little bit keep up the great work my friend
Nice video Wally. Nicely explained. I've got 9 of those wire racks and I love them but my problem is that commercial cages don't fit very well. a 48" cage won't fit on a 48 inch rack because you've only got a bit over 45 inches of space between the posts. Likewise 2 18" cages won't fit on a 36 inch rack. You used tubs which can help but if you would have wanted to go with 2 of the larger tubs per rack I think you would have found that they don't fit very well side by side with the lids on. I have some of those same tubs for raising crickets and it takes some jostling to get them on and off the shelves. If I were a tub manufacturer I'd take a look at these types of racks before I decided on the final size of my tubs. I'd make them no more than 22.5 inches long and 15 inches wide with the lids. this would allow 2 or 3 three to fit on one rack, depending on how you oriented them, with no wasted space.
Thanks Steve. I completely agree. You wind up with 3 and one small :) And that underutilized space kills me :) These 48" racks are so standard, I doubt we will see anything different. For exos, I always build my own. I have a pretty good video on building one for 15 enclosures.
I have two of those wire racks here. I keep meaning to buy the wheels for them so I can move them easier when I'm cleaning. I like the idea of using it for geckos too. Right now one is for isopods and the other is for my rodents. I look forward to seeing what you produce and maybe picking up a few cave geckos from you later this year :)

I will be coming back to this video in the next couple of months when I am ready to redo some enclosures. Thank you for this great video.
That's perfect. Thank you.
I love that Nannette is smiling the whole time lol
I kept yelling at her- "SMILE! Darn it!"
I cannot believe the cost comparison you did. Thank you for sharing so much information.
I had to do the cost comparison. That's the fun part

Great job Wally and Nanette. I think the rack looks fantastic.
Thank you Barb. Yes, Nanette helped too ;)

Nanette did the substrate, moving tubs, putting the rack together. Hey! I held the camera!
This is really cool Wally. I bet you could add a long power strip to allow for power
Absolutely!
Gotta love those spreadsheets!
I love spreadsheets.... spreadsheets love me
Wow Wally that’s an amazing space!
juuuuuust enough
Great video and definitely helpful I’m always shuffling things around and doing upgrades. But I’m always building new racks to make more room and expanding.
Right! This makes it so flexable.
@@SupremeGecko yea definitely need two for my snake room and thank you for doing this video and giving me new ideas 🙌
@@pumpkinchow absolutely
Very nice was considering switching to all rolling racks in my animal room 🤔 great video Wally
Thank you. I hopefully will be in the next couple years.
Looks great. My husband and I are building a snake rack.
Nice! Similar?
Beautiful geckos! What a nice set up for them :D
Thank you Mike
Great options. Thank you for sharing all this information.
Our pleasure
The rack looks fantastic! Thank you for sharing. I appreciate the price comparisons; you clearly did a lot of work for this video.
Thanks Oscar. And always welcome. The video itself was about 8 hours of editing.
Also I love the price comparisons and seeing the research done!
Thanks. It's not all about the money but......
Great video Wally! It was fun to watch the setup. The geckos will be very happy!
Thank you Bob. I hope so.
wow what a great video I think that it looks great I like how cheap the cost can be when you think out side the box a little bit keep up the great work my friend
Thank you Andrew. This one took some time.... and I even had to cut a chunk out that wasn't as relevant.
@Supreme Gecko editing is a lot of work on top of filming the video. You did a great job wally great information. Thank you
@@DEAexotics Thank you so much Andrew
Casters are back savers! Wish I'd put them on my original rack.
I have so many racks without them. :(
@@SupremeGecko Definitely time for an upgrade, yup!

Great video Wally!! You are becoming the master of space optimization! Myself, I’m fresh out of space 😭
I might have my masters in SO, but I am fresh out of time ;) (did that even make any sense at all?!?) Thanks Nick
@Supreme Gecko I'm with ya Wally
I think it looks great!
Thank you Emily

Thank you Leanne. Thus should be much better for them all.
Nice! Thanks for doing all that research and sharing. It looks great!
Glad to help.

Great video! I’m on the hunt for some vents, what site did you use?
VentMaster. Thanks
Can those racks actually hold fully multiple heavy bioactive vivariums on each shelf? Can it hold up?
Thanks.
Absolutely! 1000 lb per shelf
I always need more room lol
Don't we all?!?
