Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

I use to have one. I really enjoyed mine while I had it. Unfortunately I think mine was a WC and I wasn't as knowledgeable as I should have been on the species. I look forward to owning another one sometime in the future.

Mangroves are very nice, if a little more prone to problems initially. Knowing about them before you get them home is a big plus. They were one of 2 types of monitor that I used UV lighting for, and only for acclimating/rehabilitating weakened imports. Once they were going strong, I didn't bother. Another thing about mangroves is I found they did better at somewhat lower temps than those at which I kept many other monitors (basking area of around 95-100 as opposed to 120-130, depending on the species). Enjoy. (oh - don't forget to vary it's diet)

Thanks guys. I spoke to herpetologist before I got him about the care, he has had Mangroves before and basicly told me everything you told me, I vary his diet between Mice, Worms, Feeder snakes, and every now and then fish or crickets..

I use to buy mine feeder fish and would put them in his water tub. It's pretty hilarious watching them swim after the fish.
