IMO, it all depends on how big an adult it becomes. I think for any size adult that is too small as far as floor space goes. When mine is an adult I plan on getting at least a 40 gallon breeder tank (36X18X16). If he/she becomes large for BP standards (like 5 or more feet) I'll go even bigger than that. Your BP could probably "survive" in something you are describing but it would be much happier and healthier in something that gives it more floor space than what you described.
