Mertens Water Monitor

[cris]

Spencers monitors are cool, im not sure if i would call them placid, but they dont tend to bite. They also vary in size some are pretty small while others are as big as the other large species.

Yellow spotted monitors are awesome too.

haha i havn't owned monitors before but i think some people would agree with me that u can't exactly 'tame' a monitor to become the lap dog of all reptiles

Would love a Mertens but its too cold here in adelaide in winter and i can't keep one inside because i dont have the room.

as adults no less than 100cm x 50cm
so a 4x2x2 is fine..
