It's definitely not 85 gallon. A 55 gallon is a much bigger tank, 4 feet long X 12inch X18. It's difficult to tell from a pic. Please give me the measurements of the enclosure. That's all I need to determine the gallons, which is really irrelevant when looking for a screen top. I only need to know the dimensions of the floor space, not height.

I suspect it to be 30 inches long X 12 inches. If that's the case, there is a top for that tank which will fit a 20 gallon long, or a taller 30 gallon. I think you have a 30 gallon there.

Or I could be wrong. Either way, I know there's a screen top for it and I will find it for you and work with you to get it to you if I have to buy it online myself. The top you currently have is dangerous in terms of fire safety and to the snake. If I can prevent a tragedy here, it's worth it. Believe me, it's only a matter of time if you keep using that top.
