I want to see some too, I'm interested in red tailed boas, I'd like to see some additional terrariums, do you have smaller ones for the babies? do is a 75 gallon the biggest you'll need?

I don't know the length of a 75g but I know that an adult female will need a 6ft enclosure at least. A male might not.
I saw an adult female at the pet store that they said was an RTB.. it looked more like another type of boa but I wouldn't know.. It was in a 125 gallon tank which seemed like a perfect size for her.

I don't know what the dimensions are on a 75 gal tank, but a grown boa will need a 4x2, with large females needing a 6x2. Tanks in general are a poor idea for boas. A grown boa is stronger than you think and can push out of a screen top if the mood takes her. Getting an AP or Boaphile is a better way to go as far as security and humidity/temp control.

Re: Show me your Red Tail Boa Tanks/Tubs/Aquariums?
Ooops, you're right- I ought to have been more clear in my post...
All of my girls will get a 6x2x2 reptile cage from AP. Grown boas are very strong and so I will choose the glass sliding door option for my girls. I'm certain that they would be able to push out a plexi door 
I'm guessing that keeping a boa in a tank might be a little tricky!!
