  5. Questions
  • 2 shelves
  • 2 to 6 tubs
  • 4 in THG belly heat
  • Stackable

The VE 108 tubs share one depth and height, so any size fits any shelf, and the two shelves can hold different sizes.

Who it suits

Keepers with only a few animals who do not need a full rack, and VE-6 owners who want more shelves on the same tub system.

Both shelves have belly heat and a Direct Airflow probe slot, a set place for the thermostat probe. Check temperatures again whenever you change tub sizes.

Thermostat required
Never run heat tape without a proportional thermostat. Check the temperature inside the tubs with a separate thermometer before you add animals, and again whenever you change the setup.

Choosing your options

  • Assembled or flat packed, set with the option above.

  • Colour, from the options available.

  • Casters and shelf pins, to move the rack for cleaning and to keep tubs from sliding out.

  • Stacking: a VE-2 on a VE-6 makes eight shelves; two VE-6 racks and a VE-2 make fourteen. Follow the stacking limits and keep it stable.
