90 Gallon for a BP?
Hey all,
I was planning on buying a 90 gallon aquarium (48"X24"X18") to house my future BP (will be my first snake, but after countless hours of research I think BP's are the species for me!) but after reading some more, it seems that most people seem to think that would be way too big. I was thinking "the bigger, the better" as I want my snake to have a good home, but now I'm wondering if indeed a smaller tank would be a better home!
What does everyone think? Has anyone successfully kept a BP in a 90 Gallon? I'm hoping so, because I've already purchased a top that would fit one (48" long by 18" wide), although the top would also fit a 65 gallon because they too are 48" long by 18" wide (just 6 inches shorter in height).
Well, is a 90 gallon too big?
Thanks all! Oh, haven't introduced myself in the proper section yet so, my name is Rob, I'm 23, live in North Bay Ontario and work as an animal control officer.
Edit: Forgot to mention that although I've never owned a snake that I did have the pleasure of babysitting a ball for about two months time a couple of years ago. So I have the tiniest, tiniest, tiniest taste of what it would be like to own one.
