tank too big?

[big-spender@live.ca]

Hey There! I was just woundering if there is such thing as having a tank that is too big. My corn was born in augest and is about 15 inches long. I have him in a 20 gallon right now. He has lots of hide out spots.

As long as theres lots of hides, and as long as he eats well then there is absolutly nothing wrong with providing your wee corn with lots of room to roam.

I have my15" cali on a 30 gallon size and he's ok, eating great and happy:

That picture makes me want a corn snake with a lack of orange and yellow pigments, because that morph there looks interesting. :(
Also would a 20 gallon tank be too big for a neonate? (Is that word just used for lizards, or reptiles in general? If its just for lizards, I just made myself sound like an idiot.)Because if I managed to get my hands on one around here, It would be a bit easyer than switching between a 10 gal and a 20 gal...

Sneezy a 20L tank is adequate for an adult corn snake or a hatchling, as Elle said if you hae enough hides for the baby.
The black and white snake pictured is a king snake, there are corns that lack yellow and red pigment, but not black and white.

I personally keep mine in small critter keepers, I find them easier to care for that way and to clean those cages. As they get older I place them in larger cages.
