Tub/Bin Question

Hey guys, I really need to move 2 of my cornsnakes into a bigger cage....the ideal thing would be 2 more 40 gallon tanks, but that would be pretty expensive :eek1: I like the idea of the whole tupperware rack things, or whatever they're called. The only ones I have seen seem pretty little....what size ones do you keep your pretty large adults in? I would like them to have enough room to move around and to get some excersize, since I only have 3 (maybe soon to be 4) snakes. (all seperate of course) Also, how would you do the heating/lighting? I would feel kind of bad if they were stuck in the dark all day, even if they prefer to come out at night.

I used 30x16x6 inch rubbermaid tubs. Check out my design in my sig. Since corns don't need vertical space this gives you about 30% more space than 20 gallon long glass tank.

cage ?

So they don't need that much vertical space? I thought that corn snakes liked to climb? I just want them to have some 'breathing room'. Thanks guys, I will check out the links!

baby corns are much more likely to take advantage of vertical space than adults. 6 inches is quite acceptable for an adult.
