Here a 40 gallon tank is like 150$. Thanks guys! I think I will try and get a 30 gallon because it isn't too big and they will be happy.

Canada price lol got to love it 30 gallon will work but in the future when you get extra cash upgrade him

GarterPython · 03-07-12, 05:12 PM

I'm just going to keep him in the 30 gallon.

theapexgerman · 03-07-12, 05:15 PM

That be fine I just like giving all my snakes plenty of room

reptile65 · 03-07-12, 05:23 PM

30 gallons is plenty of room.

theapexgerman · 03-07-12, 05:29 PM

Its ok room for me but 50 or 60 gallon better suited for a 4 foot snake

well you are not the snake.. lol the snake is fine in the 30 although I don't think you would fit in a 50 or 60 so well.

Betteer suited for my snake but I give plenty of room to my reptiles if you was a 4 foot snake would rather have a 30 gallon or a 50 gallon woulndt you want more room

If they are happy in a 30 gallon tank then why do you need a huge one? I know they will like the extra space but they don't need it so........

Exactly. They don't need the extra space. Sure, you could give your corn snake a whole room-sized enclosure. But you just need to give your snake what it needs, and the rest is a bonus. Many people successfully keep corns in 30gallon (and sometimes smaller, like if they're in tubs), without any stress to the animal, which suggests the snake is "happy" in there.

Schatzi was in a similar tank until I switched her out for a not so long taller tank. The 20L will be the quarantine tank for the male when Im ready for him. She does perfectly fine in either of these tanks and theyre only 20 gallons each but thats just my experience with Corns.

How do you know if a snake happy lol they can't tell you

This is a good size tank for a Corn IMO. The price is good too since I comes complete with 2 hides, heating and a screen top.

theapexgerman · 03-07-12, 07:24 PM

Yea look how cramp it is in the 2nd pic no room to move around both hides take a lot of space
