In your opinion, what makes a nice Blood/STP? What patterns and colors are most people interested in? I've been researching Bloods/STPs for a little while, but I come across babies (from the same breeders) that look nearly identical to me, but have a price difference of $50-75+...

Also of the 3 different types, is there a noticable size difference? I've heard Brongersmai are the largest and Curtus being the most small. I will probably be getting a male for the smaller size, but is there really that much of a difference between the 3 types? I ask this because I love the colors on the Brongersmai, but would rather have the smallest of the 3.

If I end up picking one up, what size tub should I start a baby in? I've heard of many people keeping their full grown Bloods in sterilite tubs... Isn't the height of one of these tubs a bit small for such a large diameter snake, or will they be fine in tubs as adults?
