Pythons
Pythons are a family of non-venomous snakes that are native to Africa, Asia and Australia. Pythons are ambush predators that use constriction to kill their prey. Unlike female boas, female pythons lay eggs. Pythons are hunted for their skin, which is used, like leather, to make shoes, handbags and other fashion accessories.

Is a 20 gallon tank big enough for an adult ball python?
I agree that a 20 gallon tank isn't big enough and they won't be very comportable in it but ball pythons don't get longer than 20 feet,the longest a female would get to would be 5 - 6 feet and a male would get to about 4 - 5 feet but that's rare! You could use a 30 gallon tank but the best would be a 40 gallon tank for a fully grown ball python!!
