Default Are These Spare Tanks Useable For Anything?

I have 2 of these spare from when I used to keep my fish in them before I knew it was bad for them and bought them a 3ft tank.

Are they any good to keep anything else in?

Just having a clearout and come accross them and thought i'd ask before I chucked them out. Never know they might be usefull for something.

Any ideas anyone?

Oh and this is what the tanks are:

Those are the tanks they use at rat shows as show tanks. Maybe they are used at other shows too.

Was wondering if they would be suitable to house anything in?
Probably too small for any rodents but what about small reptiles or snails or something?

I show my hedgehogs but the tanks are too small for them

I already have plenty of pet carriers.
I hate spiders so that's a total no no
When you say snails? Like giant african land snails?
Would any small reptiles be happy in it like a gecko or something? Or would it be too small?
I might just stick them in the garage they might come in handy one day lol
