Honestly fish tanks are usually more trouble than they are worth.



Most Boa people at some point or another have been through "Fish Tank " phase.



I suggest looking for a nice Rubbermaid , Sterilite or Iris type

plastic container to use as your Boa enclosure.



These plastic containers work extremely well for maintaining ideal

heat and humidity for Boa c of all species/sub species.





With the glass fish tank you'll find it becomes a challenge to keep proper temps and even more so proper humidity levels of 50% - 70% levels.



Also there are really great plastic professional enclosures such as Boaphile Plastics which happens to be

the type I prefer and I'm now building a larger presence of Boaphile Plastics cages in my place.



Your Boa will thrive in any plastic container you choose.





Of course a reliable thermostat is required to maintain proper

temps in any enclosure you choose to use.
