Hey everyone,

I guess I should first introduce myself. My name is Adam and I recently purchased a bp. I have been doing research for a couple months now and the time has finally come where I have enough time to devote to my new friend. I currently have Mr. Snake (name still being decided on) in a 41 qt. Sterilite with temps being held by a uth 92 and 81 and humidity at roughly 55%. Everything is going great. I am going to order my Ranco and flexwatt tomorrow from Rich from reptilebasics even though this heat pad has been working wonders for almost a week.

This is where my question comes in, although I see all the great benefits of using tubs, I think I am going to switch over a glass aquarium. I am willing to take on the extra work and care and maintaining just for the natural look that I would be able to make. This is my current iguana cage that I made from scratch about a year ago. I would hope to make something for my bp in the future but the tank will do for now...



Anyway...I do not want to go to big to start...my bp is currently 21". I would love to get a 40 gallon breeder now but I am not sure if he would feel too stressed in it? So I was thinking 20 gallon. How long would this last me, time and lenght wise? I know I heard the general rule of lenghtXwidth = lenght of snake rule. How does this hold in this regard?

Thanks again for all your help and I am sure you will hear more from me in the future.
