As far as the monitor thing goes, I had gotten two babies and when they started to fight was when I decided to find a new home for one of them. My monitor is currently in a 4' x 2' x4' I made for it after getting advice from the other forum (the monitor is only about a foot long right now).

I currently have the alligator in a 6'x4' enclosure, but after the post earlier I will be working on a bigger enclosure immedietely.

I also have a question about his behavior.
As I had said before I got him he was in a 30 gallon tank with no water, he's three feet and touched both sideds of the tank. When I put him in his new enclosure here he simply puts his head on the edge and wedges himself in the corner a lot. Do you think this is because he is so used to being crammed in somewhere? or is it just gator behavior?
