Without knowing the specific dimensions of the tub I did a quick search online for sterilites 50 gallon storage. It's dimensions are more than adequate to house a boa of that age for a while probably. Just make sure you get it all set up properly (heating, hides, water, ventilation, and LID SECURITY!) before getting the snake and I say go for it! Given how tricky they are to find in your neck of the woods, if you truly want one then the 150 shouldn't be too much of an issue (as long as you can actually afford it). I know if a species I've been dying for was readily available, if overpriced, I'd personally still go for it as long as the budget allowed.
