Sorry it took so long to respond. He's in a 48x42x36 for now. The main issue was the flukes. Right now he is in a temporary cage till I get the back panel of his new cage on. That's a six foot tall, four feet long and three feet wide so he has plenty of space to climb, sprawl and burrow. His appetite has also gotten bigger and his attitude is improving so I know the medicine worked. I was mainly curious if his old cage would still carry the parasites and if it did, if there was a way to disinfect the entire cage. Sorry for the late rfesponse. He was a wild caught so I'm pretty sure I know where they came from. And also to mention that he is my first monitor so now I know what needs to be done. Thanks for the help guys! I really appreciate it! =D
