I just got Rick set up in a 20L from a regular ten. He just seemed too cramped. Should I be worried about him getting too stressed? I used the same hides and decorations, and the same type of substrate, he's also in the same spot as before. The tank has never been used before so there aren't any smells from anything else. I'm just wondering if I should give him a few days before feeding him.
Thanks!
 
he will be fine, but corn snakes like a lot of clutter, cover, and hiding spaces. So you should fill up the "Wide open areas" with a few more vines, another hide box or two, etc.....

I you took the furnishings from his old smaller home and placed them in a home twice as big, then if there is a lot of open area he will feel vulnerable.
 
We did get a few more hides. I guess I did for get to mention that XD. He seemed to instantly start exploring them, so I wasn't to worried, but better safe than sorry! Thanks for the advice!
