Enclosure sufficient?

[DennisM]

The guy at inland reptiles said any male would do ok in the aquarium. I'm going with that and will upgrade later down the road if needed.

well, I've got nothing but respect for Nick, but I still think any adult carpet needs more than 12 deep. Indeed the males tend to be much smaller, but I still think even the "smaller" ssp, (jungle, ij), need more than that. post a pic of your carpet, maybe we can figure out the ssp.

yes, see how it goes and upgrade as necessary. I never put any snake in it's adult sized final cage until it's pretty much fully grown. coastals probably go through 6-8 enclosures before they have their final home. I grow the cage with the snake no matter what species.
