    What are the dimensions for the tub? I wouldnt keep an adult male in anything smaller than a 4x2x1.

    You should check out the VE175 tubs. They are 52"x20"x12". You can pick them up from home depot around Christmas time I believe, since they're used to ship Christmas trees.

    Now that is one BIG tub!

    What size would you guys recommend for an adult boa. I was looking at Boaphiles and RBI for future plans. But I really have no Idea what size to get. I'll have a male BCI and a female Suri.

    A lot of people including me keep their adults in 4x2x1 foot cages from various manufacturers. I really like my Animal Plastics enclosures because they are really solid.
