If it is an adult Ball Python, I would get a 41 qt. tub and use 12"...

By the way, THG is my personal preference for heat tape, because it's much easier to wire up and it's stronger than Flexwatt. With Flexwatt you have to solder the wires on to it and with THG you don't...
I am buying from reptile basics so I am guessing it is THG? Haha
I already bougt 34 qt tub and I like the size of it. I am going to be placing adult male later in the future, I will be getting hatchling but I am just preparing for the future haha
