I agree with Chris, but I think the whole thiaminases issue is over stated. Goldfish and some other fish release this enzyme after death. If you feed live fish or from live frozen, its not an issue. The enzyme is denatured by freezing. I have raised many different species on gold fish without any problems. Definitely avoid ribbon snakes. The florida garter reaches a nice size as well, I had one that was as big as a corn snake.
