How long is a piece of string? It depends both on the size of the crestie now and its growth rate in future (so is influenced, to some extent, by what you're feeding it).

My crestie is in a 30 x 30 x 45 at the moment and is 9 months old (i think). Will be moving him up to 45 x 45 x 60 when my overdraft isn't as bad

Agreed. Personally, I really wouldn't keep an adult crestie in a viv smaller than 45cm x 45cm x 60cm.
