rough green snakes is all i can think of, but i think you may get away with a hognose in 1 of the 24`s and maybe a small sand boa (not sure on that 1 though).

i think a gtp might be ok when young in the 24 x 18 x 24 but i think will need a larger home when adult, but im summarizing what ive read and havnt got experience with them tbh, our would be better off asking someone whos got gtp`s or atb`s.

An ATB or a GTP may go in the 24x18x24. Ideally needs something larger though, I'm not GTP or ATB expert.

24x18x18, any small snake could go: sand boas, rosy boas, African house snake, garter snake, ribbon snake, smaller water snake, Calabar burrowing python, Diadem snake

12x12x18....Hmmm...not really sure, there is one species of Solomon Island Boa (Candoia sp) that stays under 24" that I had once that did well in that size. Other than that, just baby snakes that would eventually outgrow it.

Some care sheet info for GTPs:

Green Tree Python Care Sheet (http://www.reptilechannel.com/care-sheets/green-tree-python.aspx)

You could also google ATBs for care sheets (you'll have more luck using the full name than the initials). Then you can make a comparison of their needs.

There's a LOT of info on this forum as well as on the Internet.

Good luck!

I have my GTP in a 48x24x24 and he uses every inch of it.

rough green snake for one can go inside the tallest tank. Also amazon tree boas could be another.

Why don't you decide what kind of snake you want then sell these enclosures to purchase one that will fit your preferred animal. It really isn't a good idea to purchase an animal just to fill a tank. Nor is it a good idea to get an animal you aren't that keen on just because you have a viv. Trust me. I am speaking from personal experience.

As for the atb suggestions, I had one that was almost 6' long. She would not have done well in those little exo terras
