it can be done but it will be harder to do it properly. make sure there is plenty of nice tight hides, maybe some foliage and branches to "fill in" the empty space to make the BP feel secure. keeping proper temps and humidity will be somewhat of a challenge but can be done also. there's a sticky on aquarium caging in the husbandry section of ball pythons i believe.

the alternative is to go with tubs. way cheaper, easier to maintain proper heat and humidity, and IMO the way to go!
