2 corn in 1 tank???

30 gallon

No, I would think that a 30 gallon would be fine. Corns do get to be a pretty decent size and a 30 gal. is really not all "that" big. While he is a baby, you may want to just consider a plastic shoe box though. This would be more for your convenience than your snakes though. Easier to find a hatchling buuried in aspen chips in a small box rather than a big one, ya see what I mean? Hope that helped a little.

Oh and BTW, if you go with a big tank right away, your snake could stress. Somtimes a bigger tank can be a little much for a hatchling.
 
If you do get a bigger tank, make sure you have plenty of hides in there. I have a hatchling in a 36" x 12" tank, but she has 8 hides in there, plus tons of leaves for cover. She doesn't have to travel but half her body length before getting to anothe hide.

it really is not the size of the tank, be sure to provide several hides inside a large tank for a smaller snake. snakes like to hide and can get stressed easily. I would recomend around 5 hides in this size tank. try to remember what kind of surroundings snakes live in in the wild, and be creative and create a natural envirorment for your snake.

No, they can grow up to 6ft. 30 gal is definitely not too big. If you house 2 together one will end up being food.

You'd be lucky to ever see a 6 ft. corn. Most corns are around 4 ft. with a few going 5 ft. 30 gl. would be fine for most corn adults. Neonates and youngsters less than a year can be cheaply and comfortably housed in a Rubbermaid box.
