About a month ago, my bro-in-law decided to give me back the ball python I'd been watching for him. Finally, he said come and get it. I'm switching it to a tub, for obvious reasons. This snake, last time I measured it, was about 28" or so.

Sometime this week, I'm going to build a 2-space rack for them. My other bp is in a tube that's approx 27"X16"X6". Would I be ok putting the smaller snake in the same size tub, or should I go with a smaller one? They're cheap enough that if a smaller one would suit him better, I'll do that, but if he'd be ok in the size I'm ultimately going to move him to, I'd just as soon do that.
