MY handy dandy assistant learned much from the joy and enthusiasm that yours did!
That’s awesome!!!
Very glad I found this. Thank you. Shared, saved to playlist
Appreciate you watching!!! 🌚
Thank you for this video!! I’m replacing my heat tape and this helped me figure out how to do it RIGHT!! Appreciate it!
Thanks. Glad it helped out.
Right on! It's simple enough to figure out. Thanks!!!
Thanks bud.
That’s right, tell’’em. Nice vid, thinking about buying a rack now.
You ROCK my friend!
Thanks bud.
Nice rack. Although you had to assemble it yourself, it looked very easy to do and was well-made.
I don’t get that compliment often. 🤣
They are well made. I now have 12 of them and have been very happy overall.
What level you put the prob on for the heat tape?
Just got one of these for Colubrids, got it in a week. Thanks for the tips, and the humor your assistant looks like Jessica Biel 🖤
Ha thanks. I’ll let her know. 🌚
Thanks man
Hope it helped.
@@LunaGeckos o it did, perfectly I’d say the heattape alittle rough too get in but yes piece of cake, with your help of course 😊
@@LunaGeckos sure did and my friend even grabbed a import from somebody threw you recent I believe,bn very niceee Channel! Thankyou it helps me as a 2 year breeder alot
@@LunaGeckos sorry lol my names Joshua btw leo breeder from Rhode Island
great video I love what you did with the instructions sorry you didn't get all the screws they may say you have a few loose screws lol.. all in all loved the video and I like the new rack
Always something it seems, but the show must go on. Thanks for always taking the time to watch. Greatly appreciated.
@@LunaGeckos I may watch late but I will never miss one
Great instructional video. Way to go. Look great. She looked thrilled :) Have you ever thought about the metal round vents?
I use them for New Cal and insect tubs. I love them. I never tried in the rack tubs. Was always afraid of too much ventilation on the heated racks (heat and humidity loss). Have you used them in heated racks? If so, they work well there?
@@LunaGeckos Nope. Do not. But was wondering if you did and how it worked for you. Every house is different.
This video was great, especially because I received the instructions for the economy rack instead. 🤦♂️ The only chance I’d make to your process is to leave the top off until after you’ve installed the heat tape. Makes running the cord for the heat tape, securing it and taping it down much easier. Thanks so much though!!
Good advice. Thanks for the tip.
Is that 3in or 4in tape?
I don’t recall. Check Reptile Basics website for specs.
These racks save me 30% $ compared to cserpents.
Easier to put the tape in BEFORE screwing the back in. Plus you will need to mount the thermostat probe anyways and then screw the back on.
I’m receiving 2 of these and a Super70 today🎉🎉🎉
Cool
@@LunaGeckos I❤️the Super70 tubs for my Godzilla Super Giants. Now I’m adding cob warm light led strips to each lvl.
Is that the racks you mainly use
Hi G, how you been? I have some questions for you
The little strudy’s calcium caps where you put calcium to the baby geckos where did u buy them,
After how many years do u recommend renewing your breeding geckos?
Do you have any ventilation in the lid of the container where you breed the crickets besides the round ventilation in the side?
In the setup where the crickets were born the temperature has to be also 85-90 degrees?
To get the cricket setup temperature can I use a thermal heat pad? And how many watts you recommend
How often is the substrate changed to the new born crickets and the adults?
Calcium caps are from Stroodies. They have an Etsy store.
I think every gecko is a bit different, and we hold back around 10-15% of our babies each season. So we really don't have any females older than 4 right now.
Just the round vents for crickets since they are in a rack and the self above is the lid.
Any way you can keep crickets warm helps. They seem to breed best in the 85-90F range.
I change the substrate after the tub in empty, which is usually 3-4 week. I rotate where I'm feeding from so that I have an empty tub every 3-4 weeks.
@@LunaGeckos Tank you so much G
so you double the heat tape and put them on top of each other on each shelf?? wont that double the heat on each shelf?
No. It goes across bottom of each shelf then down one side and across bottom on next shelf. Kinda like a zig zag all the way down.
You feed it across the top shelf inside the groove and out the other side, then back into the same hole but UNDER the shelf into the compartment below, pull it out the hole below and repeat.
Great video G, what do you think about Cserpents racks?
Thanks. My daughter uses all C-Serpent racks. I just started with these VE ones and love the flexibility of 3 different tub sizes per shelf. These are a bit sturdier than C-Serpents too, but the Cs are nice racks too.
@@LunaGeckos ok G Thanks
I’ll answer other questions soon. Been tied up today.
@@LunaGeckos no problem G thanks
Were they good about sending you replacement bins and parts? I have cserpents and animal plastics. Love the animal plastics and was cheaper than cserpents just had to put together myself no biggie but took forever to get it. By my math if i went with v.e. id save a small amount of $$ all around and get it sooner. Ive got extra bins for a animal plastics so actually id come out cheaper geting rack from them and not having to purchase different bins but it down to 1 or the other. Faster and spend more for bins or save and wait forever and use my extra bins. Kinda like the 3 bin options for it. Doesnt look to have heat tape covers as other 2 companies but honestly wouldnt mind using this. Is it for your leopard geckos? I put holes all around in my other rack's bins so curiouse to just front holes on this one if your putting leos in it. Great vid btw
Yes. I just took photo of broken ones and new ones were sent right out.
I use for Leopard and Fat Tail Geckos.
I need ve 108-23 tubs only need 4 to 6 tubs live on east coast please help!!
Did you look at reptilebasics.com?
Thank you for doing a video on this, the assembly instructions for this rack suck.
Ha. True that. Thanks for watching.
FIRST!!
👏👏👏
