Congratulations on getting it, they are not as common in the US pet trade as others.

He will still grow large but not as big as a Sumatran. My guess is more around the 5 foot range, but as with sumatrans, it can vary a lot

Yes, I know there is one in the classifieds for 350. I thought that was a little pricy and perhaps others did too, since its been there a long while....its okay, I have me a couple gorgeous waters so Im happy. If I was going to get another water it would be one of the rarer ones, like nuchalis or cumingi.
