Scratchy, are those genuine H. spelea? I know there are a few Alice Springs locality guys floating around in captivity, which are not spelea but still fall under the binoei name.

Not knowing which species you have, I would say yeah that tub size (30-35L) will be fine for hatchlings. Step up to the 60L if you are going to keep them in tubs as adults.
