28 qt is pretty much the smallest for an adult male corn. If he is a big one, you may want to go with a 32 qt.

If he's a big male it wouldn't hurt to go as big as a 41qt, though 32qt will do.

My biggest male is in a 41-qt tub, he's a seven year old normal and weighs over 2000 grams.
My breeders are all younger and smaller, around 1000 grams. They're in 34-quart tubs.

When I had my corn he was incredibly active, if you are doing a new setup why not provide him with a big enough cage so he can roam?

I had mine in a 3x2x2 and he used every inch of it, to the point where he probably could have used an extra foot in length.

Google says the 20 gallon long is 30X12X12. Our Petco?/PenSence?/PetSomething... sells that for almost $50, but I expect you would get an employee discount. Our local WalMart sells a huge long tank (don't know the volume nor dimensions) for $100, maybe $110.
Love the look of that big tank, but dang - it would be like trying to find a space to move a Volkswagon into the house.
