    I wouldn't trade, but that's because I'm more of a ball python fan. A 55 gallon fish tank would not be big enough by the time it was full grown, but in the end it is up to you, if you would have the means to support it with a bigger tank/ cage and bigger food.

    I love my red tail more than all the others, don't tell the others though

    A 55 gallon will work for now, but won't work forever, especially for a female. Do like me though, have both. Pick up a neonate at a reptile show for $60

    I'd vote for getting a hatchling as well, and growing your own to that size. Lots more fun imo
