*Sigh* Drainage Issues. Ideas needed ASAP

[Meghan]

So my cham is sick and slightly dehydrated, we just move which may have been a issue. But Im interested in peoples drainage systems, I have a little dripper that I have to refill constantly, which kinda defeats the purpose. With this amount of water dripping all day I need a good system for drainage that can be left alone all day incase Im not home to empty it. I currently have a bin that the tank is in at an angle and the water goes out a leaky hose into a cheap trash bin. The problem is its so darn leaky, I just can not get a good seal on the tubes. Plus as you can see its pretty unsightly, so any ideas at all? Im willing to spend money on something thats really going to work.

I bought a plastic utility sink from Home Depot and set my cage on top - the 24x24x48 fits perfectly. There's a drain at the bottom, and I set a 5 Gal carboy under that, so the water just drips right into that and then I can water my plants with it. The sink has about 2 1/2' clearance under it so fitting the carboy under it is no problem. Hope this helps!
