What are the footprint measurements of a 10 and 15 gallon tank? Thanks!

Wow...really? That's odd. I asked a few shops if a male hognose snake could be housed in a 10 gallon, and they said that was too small and a 15 would be better. Hmmmmmmmm....maybe they meant a 20 gallon?

There might also be another 15 gallon size. If so, it is not listed in the URL I provided in my previous post.

I used to keep a lot of Western Hognose snakes, if that's the species you mean, and the males would have done fine in a ten gallon. But they were from a locale where the adults seemed pretty small.

A 15 gallon tank is 4" longer in length,and 2" deeper,same height.Same floor plan as a 20 high,not as high.10 gallon would be smaller.

Thats been my experience with the tanks. At least the Critter Cage brand is set up like that, I have some 10s and 15s and a 20 at home.
