Here is an example of a Merauke scrub. From what I have been told these and the Aru stay about 8-10 ft. They are very intense when it comes to watching you. They will track your every move. It's almost weird. If you are thinking of getting into these, I would highly recommend captive bred. W/C can be, but not every case, very nasty and almost seemingly untamable. I have not seen many other pythons with the irridesence these have. Also keep in mind that you need to keep the meals on the small side as they are slender and don't seem to like to be power fed. They can be very cool pets with the right attention.
