I like to see adults in at least a 4ft long tank. Not sure how that fits into the corner of your room but it would still take up a fair amount of space. You can get corner style aquariums but they're pretty expensive and you would have to build your own screen top for it. The best bet is if you are handy with tools, build your own out of melamine or wood with a moisture proof finish. Or ask at glass shop if they would make you one.

I can also see a corner tank taking up a lot of space. Maybe if you were using it for something that needed more of a verticle tank for climbing it might work out better. That way you can building it higher than wider. But good luck w/ your project anyway :) Keep us posted if you decided to give it a try!

the general rule that I've been told by my breeder, is 1 SQ FT of floor space per foot of snake.
