    When is it time to switch tanks?
    Approximately how long can my BP stay in a 10 gallon tank? Around what weight/length should he be before I go to something bigger?

    Thanks!

    I moved mine out of 10 gallon tanks by 6 months (350 + grams, not sure on length as it is a pain to measure)

    Sounds good, thanks. What did you move to after a 10 gallon?

    I wouldn't keep anything past 500g in a 10gal.

    I move them into an Animal Plastics T8 with a divider (makes 2: 2' x 2' cages from one 4' x 2' cage)

    20gal, or 20gallon breeders is what I moved to. The breeder ones are wider.

    I moved mine when she was around 18-20 inches into a 30 gallon. I don't know how much she weighs now because I don't have a scale, but she is a little over two feet long.
