water tray

Just brought water drainage trays from LLL reptiles can you guys give me different ways that you've set them up for use . I was just going to put some holes in the middle and let it drain in a bucket/rubber maid . Would appreciate some pictures of some other ways if you would share .

You can drill a hole and install a sink drain.

I've read this but never done it.

I drill a hole in one corner of the tray, and cement a drain bulkhead with
a piece of tubing going into a bucket.
Need to shim the tray so the water will flow to the hole, and not pool somewhere.

Nice idea . Well I got the 18x 18 and a 24 x24 water trays and the 24x24 doesn't fit the cage . Go figure it measures 24x23and3/4 .

I had the same problem with the 18 x 18 x36 size. I set the back edge of the cage on the supports and let the front of it hang off the front of the tray 1/4 inch. It still worked well, and since the holes I drilled in the cage floor are in the center and back the water went right in the tray. I also had plastic covering the back and sides for holding humidity and containing any dripping from the misting system.
