well the hognose only gets 2 ft and they feel stressed and insecure in open spaces, they are recomended around a 10-20 gallon, mine is 21 so should be perfect, i have done lots of research on these, as i was going to get one last yr, i recently watched these vids of expert village about care of them by this american reptile guy.

in the wild they would keep to small burrows and hides to feel secure and dont venture out into open spaces too often, this is why a viv can be too small but also too big. i think mine is just right.
