I have a friend that has a glass tank that is that size. I am thinking about getting back in the hobby and he is offering me a really good deal on it. Do you guys think it would be wise to get it seperate it into 4 sections and keep my snakes in that containter? Im still a little undecided. Your input will be greatly appreciated.

Well I was going to split it 2' by 2' by 2' sorry about the typo. But I figured I could build one that size cheaper then $200. It has some small cracks on the bottom he just purchased it for a reef tank for his tattoo shop but when they put bulkheads on it it cracked in 4 spots on the bottom. I decided im going to build my own dispaly.

depends o the snake you're best bet is to separate into 2 or 3 that would probably fit 3 bps.

It would be really hard to keep the humidity.

in regards to the humidity, put glass,plexiglass,tin foil, or a towel over the top. putting live plants in the enclosure raises humidity a lot too. It has definetly helped the humidity im my bp's enclosure.
