Corn Tank Size?

[Betta5]

I have a 30"x12"x15" tank and a corn needs a home fast its 4foot long would the tank be ok? I could get it out everyday for exercise i just dont have a massive tank. Would it be ok? Thanks

A 20 Gallon Long will comfortably house an adult cornsnake. I'd say from reading your dimensions, that you don't need a new tank. Just take him/ her out every few days and handle the little dickens. It should be ok then.

It could come out for an hour a day or so just to keep it active.
Thanks for the reply.

I dont keep adult corns in anything less than a 36Lx18x18 viv saying that i have a 3 1/2 ft King snake that refuses to eat if i have her living in a 3ft viv yet as soon as she goes back into a 2ft viv she eats like a pig and this has been going on for 5 years

Imo 20 gallon is tinyyy for adults, aim for atleast something like 3ftx16x16 for adults.I have 3 females.Biggest being 4'6 long I think.

Somehow I don't see a potentially 5-6ft snake living comfortably in such an enclosure..... I'd say a 75g would be a great size for an adult corn, although a 20g will hold one up until I'd say about 3 feet.

I think that size would be fine for it they dont need that much room
