Have a look on Really Useful Products Ltd - Select country, they show all the different sizes. We use 9litres and 19litres mostly but it depends what snake it is for, Kat

a RUB is a Really Useful Box (name of company), they make those plastic storage boxes in all shapes and sizes, 80l is just 80 litres, this just refers to size really, tere was a few good pics on here of one set up for a corn but i cant think where it is, hope this helps a little

Looking at the RUB website, 50l RUB has the largest floor space, but with internal measurements of 605 x 370 x 200, surely that isnt big enough for an adult?
