Yeah i am totally sterilizing the tank as we speak, and the tub for the ball isnt even going to be in the same room for awhile. I just got a 28 but it seems kinda small, but iguess after having ihm in a big huge tank, anything would look small, and the boa definitely needs the space more. Shes about 5 foot and as big around as a soda can, thats all the description ive gotten so far. Meeting the guy at 2 pm est today. so i hope all goes well.
