I've always wanted a snapper and I finally got my hands on one. For free. In the past I've dropped hundreds on turtles and I finally got another one and for free. I will raise him until older and if worse comes to worse ill get him a 300 stock pond. Or ill set up my 3000 gallon pond I have frame for. Not sure yet. I'll see as he grows. Snappers for the most part have slow growth. Compared to other species. So he should be fine in a 10. For about 3 months or until he reaches 2.5-3" then he'll go in the 55 till I get a new home.
