Greetings everyone!
Aside from my intro yesterday, this is my first public post on here in over 15 years! Great to be back!
I am getting all my supplies together for my future new panther and I am having a dilemma I’d like some advice on. My coming enclosure will be 2x4x4. I am trying to decide whether to get a stand with two shelves or a full rack which the enclosure will sit inside of. There are pluses and minuses to each option in my opinion, but I just cannot convince myself of either one. I like the mobility of a full rack on casters, and the option of hanging wire baskets for a flogger etc., not to mention having all the fixtures etc. off the top of the enclosure, but a smaller stand will be cheaper and take up less space (kind of). I’ve looked at a LOT of options and really like the Husky type racks/shelves, but there are so many others as well. In the end, the decision will obviously affect my placement of UVB/LED bar/heat source, etc. so I need to figure this out so I can do the math and have enough space up top either way. It would also determine whether I get the 6% or 12% Arcadia bulb because placement will be higher on the full rack obviously. I’m aware that this is just one step in this beginning process, but I wanted to get another set of opinions before I pull the trigger either way. Thanks so much in advance!
