Sorry this reply is so late....

They can be a little spastic. We've attempted taking our monitor out and handling him several times a week to see if it would help him calm down, and we've had some encouraging results. It used to be that if we just went into the ROOM he'd go nuts, running like crazy. Now he's not so reactive if we walk around in the room or stand by his tank.

Monitors are new to me as well, so I'll share more as I learn...

P.S. The water bowl....it's a lost cause....just keep changing it.

Your mangrove monitor is highly aboreal at this age, and will become more aquatice as she/he grows. I suggest building an enclosure so as to allow for a pool more so than a water dish. My 3footer didn't like her enclosure for 6 months, now she swims and climbs her tree all day. To the point, it takes them a while to become a custom to their surroundings, and you included.
