Mike got all but one.
I do believe that behaviour is different in an enclosure than tub. I have multiple enclosures and tubs and every now and again trade a snake from tub to enclosure. I start keeping note of what I see after a month or so, it gives the animal time to find a rythem. I have found that most in an tub gain weigh faster but also are a lot less active. I'll look in through the end of the tub and see that the snake is in a hide much of the time. The enclosure snakes seem to spend time moving around in the nights my big female who has done this lots will lay curled so much in her tub that she gets bent scales in the enclosure after a shed or two they go away. I can't say for sure but it seems to me they show more curiosity with all things in the enclosure also seem less timid as well. I use both and am happy with both and have complaints with both. This is just my observations of the same animals in an enclosure and tub.
