The one time my snake got out he wedged himself under my 55 gallon tank with a wooden stand with a tiny gap underneath. I tried just pouring a little warm water on him which kind of worked but only his first third could squeeze back out. Had to drain the tank, take out all the fish, sand, decor, canopy, can filter and everything to get him out. Je would pick the heaviest piece of furniture to hide under
Glad your baby got out no worse for the wear.
