They get large, at the uppermost end of the "midsize" category.

They are high strung, super active, and need a larger cage than body size matching, because of their overly active nature.

They aren't interested in interacting with you all that much, and while a neat species in the wild, I don't think they make that great of a captive because of their caging and activity needs. Cheap though.

If you like that type of lizard, a better choice would have been a Flavi, a Flavi cross, or even a Gould's. All smaller and less ridiculous than the Argus.
