They grow to around 4 feet long and as you can see from this video they are very aquatic. Most of their diet is made up of snails which they crush with their powerful jaws.

Those are nice but $1100 is a bit steep for my price book for a lizard. :)
Yeah it is expensive but with a price like this someone with serious intentions who has done plenty of research will most likely buy them for a breeding project. They're definitely an investment animal. The high price keeps knuckle-heads away from buying them and killing them slowly in a 20 gallon aquarium.
