Actually I mean a water heater.

But there is no answer to your question. As there is really no question. You see, everyone has different requirements that guide them. Or limit them.

like, I would do that, but I have some reason not to, etc. Well we all have reasons to not do something. So what does that mean.

The point is wholelistic. that is, I am concerned with an adult water monitor, not a baby. if you the keeper do your job HALFWAY decently, a baby water monitor will be an adult very very quickly.

Also, you can heat a cup of water in many many ways. But a large body of water that is REQUIRED for an adult salvator is another story.

Also, this is what I feel is missing in this whole WATER monitor keeping. Most have no concept of what an adult is or what is required.

So, how do you heat the pool for a seven foot monitor? A pool is something it can swim in. oh I know, a swimming pool heater, which is a water heater. Cheers

Ps, sorry for being a smart aleck, but we all need to put these animals in a realistic context. If done right, they are suppose to become adults.
