For a full grown adult male what size Rubbermaid or Sterilite tub would you use? I live in Los Angeles, but I don't have enough money or room in my backyard for an outdoor enclosure. Thanks :)

Nothing less than 4'x8' would do. An adult can't be kept in a Rubbermaid or Sterilite tub.

Agreed. My adults are 11-14" and can't even turn around in a tub.

Agreed. My cherry head "RED" is 9 inches and I'm keeping RED in 4x8 feet tortoise table.No offense but money is important in keeping tortoises, especially if you really want to give them a happy life in captivity.You can use big bookshelf as tortoise table,just remove the shelvings and clean it. You can save some money on that and you can provide a better enclosure for your tort. :)
