Appropriate tank size for Chinese Beauty?

What's a good tank size for a mature Chinese Beauty snake? I have an empty 20 gallon long, but I doubt that's big enough.

As it grows, you would want about a 55 gal tank. They can get to be very long snakes (8 ft). If this is a youngster, you can use your 20 gal tank for a few years. It will work just fine. Good luck with your new snake.
