Hi, all you need is a basking spot of 55-70 degrees, yep 40cm TL, Enclosure size 900L x 600w x 600h, remmeber with monitor the more room the better, Reptiles Australia Volume 3 Issue 1, have a great article on them it tells you everything you need to know. Have a look through some old threads on them, there should be some pic's of enclosure's.
Thanks Tim.
