I don't think that at 15 gal would be big enough for an adult corn. You could use it for at least a couple of years though. Just my opinion. I like to give mine some room to move.

Depends on the size of the adult. I'd upgrade when the snake gets up towards four feet long. But it's fine for a 3-3.5 foot snake.

may not be ideal, but I breed several corns in smaller contianers then that. I just had to put the females in lager contianer big enough to acomidate an eegbox when they wher ready to lay.
