If that is a melinus, it is one of the most amazing ones I have ever seen. Where did it come from?

It is varanus melinus. How much did you get it for? They are a little bit harder too keep than some australian specie but are really fun to work with. Keep it humid, feed it a lot, and keep it hot and it should grow. It should get around 4 ft. mine is about 3ft currently. they will get really yellow mine was almost completely black as a baby. yours has some extra yellow.
best of luck!
