I think you are looking for info on Hydrosaurus webberi, they are big omnivorous lizards that need big cages with plenty of water area.

I had a pair many years ago, they were big, like 3ft long (with tail) and they were not too friendly.

they are not as available as they used to be, perhaps for good reason, they dont make the greatest pets.

but if you have a large cage, and the right set up to keep them happy , good luck.

I treated mine like basilisks, they were a little larger though.

they are really pretty lizards.

good luck in your search for information.

Thank you very much for the info! Yes, I heard that they are not very friendly no matter how long you work with them. I got one from someone who didn't want it anymore and was looking for some info.
Thanks LdyDrgn for the webpages! Helped a lot!
