They grow very fast, they will probably be well over 20 inches within a year. You got three? What will you do if you have more than one male?

i have no idea what im going to do with them
whats wrong with having 2 males? will they fight?
i bought them for only $7.50 a piece =)

Yes, males will fight and need separate enclosures. You know you will need an enclosure the size of a small room for the three of them?

I have two males and they don't fight. In fact, they get a long great. I think that males will only fight over a female...so just hope that you get a 1.2 ratio or a 3.0 ratio. But mine get along great...so who knows.

How old are your dragons? I can't imagine that two males would get along, but my two male turtles do get along and I was told the same thing, they would only fight if a female was present. Still, I can't believe a pet shop would sell 3 juvi water dragons without informing the buyer of the risks. Not to mention how fast they would grow and how huge of a setup they will need!

I don't know how old they are exactly, but they're about 20 inches long and sexually mature...so I know that they're fine together...it's just when a female comes into the picture, I'll have problems.

i have 3 waterdragons in a 6'4" tall 2'wide 2' deep and they are perfectly fine
i have 2 males that are about 30" and 1 female around 20" and they never fight and get along great
if u get all three at the same time no matter what they are they will be cool together
and personally that enclosure is perfevt for them
u dont need something the size of a small room
