    what size tub ?
    ok, so we're picking pu the new addition soon, and i am relocating our ball to a tub. I was just wondering what size tub i needed to go and get.He's about 3 foot, approx 800 grams. We've got a 55 gallon aquarium for the RTB, and thats only until the custom tank is done, at which time the ball will go back into the 55 and the RTB will go into the custom. I just need a temporary spot to park the bp, and a tub would be cheapest right now. Thanks :D

    32 quarts tub (23 1/2"L x 16 1/4"W x 6 3/8"H) will work perfectly!

    Yep, 32qt or equivalent should work great!

    Do NOT forget to quarantine that boa as far from your BP as you can (if you haven't already had it a while)! :)

    Yeah i am totally sterilizing the tank as we speak, and the tub for the ball isnt even going to be in the same room for awhile. I just got a 28 but it seems kinda small, but iguess after having ihm in a big huge tank, anything would look small, and the boa definitely needs the space more. Shes about 5 foot and as big around as a soda can, thats all the description ive gotten so far. Meeting the guy at 2 pm est today. so i hope all goes well.
