Hello guys as the title says im thinking of swapping my rubs to vivs but I have no idea what I will need, I would prefer to use some sort of lighting instead of the heat mats, Could anybody give me a help? lol Also I know that vivs are quite expensive so I could maybe build some sort of rack but I prefer the look of vivs. Im in quite a pickle lol

Yeah mark but you could always use a courier and you'd not have to worry that you might not have the right equipment lol I'd consider it if I wasn't going the other way (vivs to rubs)
