Those who have done this...

is it best to put drain bulkheads in the front of tanks [but will see them? ]

or toward back? [hard to access, and how to you move a viv once piped in?]

I am setting up new racks of Protean vivs 22 x 17 x 30" with 2 misting heads per Viv.

I'd luv advice on misting systems too if any have some suggestions for me.

Thnks all.

thanks all

I have to admit picking UP a 22x17x30" glass viv full of substrate/ water etc to move it just doesnt sound that easy...

Often now with Exoterra I have to SLIDE them onto the shelves and off. I think draining through the back wall sounds better.

I like the flexible hose idea, into a bucket, although my rack walls will have 16-24 vivs per wall, so maybe I will try having short runs of flex tube to a gutter and then to the end of the rack.

I also thought of closeable spigots off the fronts....and just walking around the room once a week and draining each tank manually into a bucket? Think they will 'fill up' too quickly? I do manual misting now, and usually dont have to hand drain vivs for 3-6 mo between but the misting systems must put out a lot more water....
