    2 feet isn't enough for an adult. As was said, you want at least a 3'x2' and 1' high cage...mine is 4'x2'.

    Re: tank building??????????

    When I make my adult racks for a 41qt tub I cut my boards 16-1/4" wide by 35" long this is big enough for the support rails on the bottom and the tub also.

    it ends up looking like this

    one last unrelated thing.

    what does the 0.1 or 1.0 or 1.1.3 or whatever mean before the type of snake. for example 1.2 pastel.
