I'm looking to get a False Water Cobra for my first venomous snake and I kinda want all the details first before I dive into something I may not be able to handle. I would like to know:

How big they get?
What they eat?
What kind of habitat do they need?
What temperature should their habitat be kept at?
Do they hibernate?
Do they usually have a nice temper?
How toxic is their venom?

and anything else important that I forgot to list. Thanks so much.

I know nothing about these guys, except that a guy I know was hospitalized for two weeks when he had an allergic reaction to the venom. Whether or not everyone reacts to the venom in the same manner, I do not know. Cool looking snakes, though!

They are not actually venomous. They are rear fanged. "FALSE" Water Cobra. I am actually interested in getting one also.

Rear fanged means just that: venomous. It's just that the method of toxin delivery is in the back, not the front.

False Water Cobras are "False" because they resemble Cobras, but are a different species. They are mildly venomous.
