    40 gallons should be good (minimum) if he can stretch thru the entire 20 gallon tank.

    40 gallon or more should be big enough for the rest of his life, as long as you have proper setups.

    Not really, just make sure not to crowd things, and you should be fine!

    Re: wondering when

    Not sure fi I am right but a 40 gallon is good but if he only barely strecthes othe length of the tank then it can be a time for move but balls stay alot fo time in thier hides where they are curled up ina tight ball so why move up to a larger tank if the room is not 100% needed?
