    Re: What size tub for what size snake?

    I was just discussing this topic a few days ago...Here is what I use. This is just what I use, you will get many different thoughts on this topic...

    6qt...up to 400g
    15qt...400g to 700g
    32qt...700g to 1500g
    41qt..anything over 1500g

    Some people (including myself) have bigger sizes than I said in the smaller tubs because they are eating better but that can give you a general idea...

    That would be great Tony, even better than the 32qt.

    The 28qt, depending on the brand usually have the same floor space as the 32qt only with a lower ceiling height, which your snake will love

    FWIW, I dont use anything bigger than a 28qt
