Very nice. Well done, a prime example of how paitience is needed with monitors. How long has it been a year?

thanks, a year in august, but only since january that i found this site. before january, husbandry and everything was so wrong i dont even like thinking of what the lizard must have been going through. small aquarium, no humidity, no real growth at all. horrible. so since january it went from about 14 inches at most to almost 3 feet now. i cant even imagine how big it wouldve been by now if enclosure wouldve been proper from the start. i think it will be huge if no permanent stunting occured
