I beilive a 45inch corn snake could live in there. I think its Length + Height = Maximum length of cornsnake.

Looks good, ya might just want to clean the glass a bit, hehe. :P

The general rule is length + width, but personaly I prefer a square foot for every foot of the snake (apart from tiny snakes). So my 4ft corn is in a 4ft viv etc.

yeah a fully grown corn should be very happy in there, if you decide to get a hatchling or yearling you'll have to put it in a smaller tub first as too much space can stress baby snakeys.

Your right there lee, they're sold as soffit vents for the eaves of your house. Good cheap way of buying em and they sell different sizes and colours.
