Hi WillStill, I`m not sure if I understood you correctly, so my reply may not make much sense!?
Varanus ornatus is probably the moat aquatic of the African monitor species, you suggest it doesn`t need to swim, it doesn`t need to climb or dig either, if it comes to that!
I`ve been using ponds and exterior filters for well over 20 years, yes, they need to be maintained, but so does everything else.
Do you advise keepers with V. salvator and mertensi etc, not to bother fitting ponds, but just a water dish?
The OP has kept varanids previously, and seems more than willing to do whatever`s necessary.
And if this is a male, 2 feet or more of substrate isn`t "needed" anyway!
