I have a 55 gallon tank and was wondering how many corn snakes could i keep in it?

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

it is not completly unheard of to have one corn eat or attempt to eat another. I personlly prefer to keep all corns, and all my snakes for that matter house in there own cages, but here is something that I did with a 55 gallon tank a few years ago when I was still using fish tanks as cages.

The long section of a 10 gallon tank will fit perfectly in the middle of a 55 gallon tank. It will slide right up to the bar in the center of the frame, amking the 55 gallon into to nice sized 2' corn snake cages. Use some vegitable oil to make it slide easier into place, put once there a bit of silicone will make it so it does not move and you can put two corns into two seperate cages in one 55 gallon tank, now all you have to do is get a broken ten gallon tank that you can use the long side as the divider.
good luck
