wow guys, impressive posts! you know i completely forgot about tegus haha, but i've had leopard geckos in the past, and still have one big male, i've kept different frogs and a tortoise. so i'm really just looking for something different in all honesty. budget isn't too much of a problem but space kind of is. i live in an apartment with three roommates so i don't want something that has to be in a nine foot by six foot enclosure, you know? after googling varanus i think i really like v. prasinus, what do you guys think?
