wow... he really grew since you got him. And I see you got him some branches to climb on. Looks good!

Yeah he's definitely getting big. He'll be three feet in no time. I'm thinking about moving him into a big, bio active enclosure that he can grow into. I don't know whether to build one or just get a big aquarium though.

If it were me I'd build one so I have more control over the dimensions and other perks of customisation. Plus I'd rather carry wood than glass of the same size.

That's what I have been leaning towards. I'm thinking something around 4x3x3, since he's likes to climb a lot. Or perhaps I'll look for an old dresser on craig's list.

Anyway, I caught him lounging and grabbed a picture to give you an idea of his size.



He's in a 20 gallon tank, which is 29-30 inches long. When straightened out, I assume he's at least 32 inches long if not more. Being that he's still fairly young, I can't imagine he will be under 5 or 6 feet by the time he's fully grown. Hopefully he'll keep his nice disposition.
