You're looking for 9ltr, 12ltr and 50ltr respectively I think

That's not a hard and fast rule as my two new ones (less that 6months old) have gone straight into 28ltr tubs and are doing fine

You could just use a 50l in my experience. As long as you have LOTS of cover and hides so snakey can hide and not feel exposed. Large open space can cause a royal to go off its food but I've never had this as long as he can feel secure

Aye like Fezza I use 9, 12 and 50. Though the 9l I only use for very short amount of time while they're hatchlings.
