how many years would it be able to stay in a twenty gallon until it outgrew it

He will grow out of the 20 gallon in less than a year. They grow pretty quick. I had my male in a 106 qt tupperware for 6 month then made the 4x2x2 within a year. They can double their size in a year if fed properly.

is there a python like a short tailthat is small enough to fit in a 20-30 gallon tank(slight chance it may be bigger) and has a similar temperment? if there is more than please list them all.
