Frequently Asked Questions about Snake Tanks & Cages
How do I know what size tank my snake needs?
The best way to know what size tank your snake needs is to figure out how large he will grow to be. A good rule of thumb is to get a tank that is at least twice as long as your snake's full length at maturity. For most snakes between 3 and 6 ft. long, a 20 to 40 gallon tank will be sufficient. For larger species like king snakes, consider a 30 to 70 gallon tank. Very large snakes like pythons or boas usually need a custom structure since they require much more room. Talk to your vet or a reptile expert for more guidance on choosing an ideal snake habitat type and size.
What tanks are best for snakes?
The best tanks for snakes are usually large, horizontal, clear terrarium or aquarium enclosures with an escape-proof, screened lid for ventilation. Glass or plexiglass snake enclosures are easier to clean and disinfect than wooden enclosures and provide a better view of your snake, too. However, you may need a wooden enclosure to provide enough room for very large snakes. Choose a spacious snake terrarium that has plenty of room for your fully grown pet and be sure to keep it clean and well-maintained.
What do snakes like in their tanks?
Snakes like a variety of things in their tanks, including natural branches, large rocks, caves, and real or artificial vegetation. A safe snake substrate like newspaper, paper towels, aspen bedding or artificial grass is recommended, but there are other good packaged snake bedding options, too. Snakes also like a basking space near the heating source, so use a platform, rock or branch to create an elevated area your snake can climb up to when he wants warmth.
How often do snake tanks need to be cleaned?
Snake tanks need to be cleaned thoroughly once a month and spot cleaned a few times a week. When doing a deep clean of your snake tank, take out all the decor, clean it thoroughly and replace the substrate or clean the snake bedding. To clean your snake tank, use hot water and mild soap, scrubbing all the surfaces thoroughly before rinsing and drying.
