Good enclosure size for a baby BP?
approximately 17-18 inches long and 120 grams (just ate yesterday so might be a few grams high for real weight).
If anybody could give me a good size for glass tank and tub, or even just one, that would be great. I'd like to transition her to a tub sometime. I'm thinking she's still too small for a 20 gallon long but what about tub size? Preferably dimensions of a good footprint, please, or quarts as well. Thanks!!

Re: Good enclosure size for a baby BP?
She could go into a 10 gallon tank or a 6 or 15 quart tub. The route you want to go is really up to you but I will tell you this, tubs keep temps and humidity better then tanks.

I good tub size would be between 12-20 qts I think. I have balls in a 12qt (pretty sure) RBI rack that are larger than 120 grams, but I've kept them as small as 105 grams in that same rack.
