Okay, I picked up my first red tail this past weekend, he is awesome. Im typically a BP fan, but I couldnt pass him up. Anyways, I bought a nice 18x18 Zoo Med Terranium for him, mainly because I know he would rather be able to climb than stay in a tub all day. He is active and everything, temps are nice, along with the humidity. He is eating great, I fed my BP's the same day I got him, and I figured I would try to feed him, and he almost snatched the fuzzy out of mid air lol. Anyways, I have read about RT's growth rate, but from yalls experience, what can I except from a 17" baby in lets say 2-3 months, and also a year from now, and along with how long he will be able to use this...

Btw, in the tank, he only has 1 hide, on the hot side, just because I only find him in there a few hours of the day. He loves being high.
