Re: I just got back into herps, say hello to my Chinese Water Dragon!

I'm thinking it is temporary because it is too small. A full grown WD will be around 3ft long and needs lots of room to climb, run, jump, swim, etc.
For water, the use of a big cat litter pan as you see in his and mine above works really well. They get dirty fast, so you need to be able to access it and change out all the water and clean the pan a few times a week. Since they are good climbers, you can just give them a branch, vine, ladder, etc to get up into and out of it... And yes, 10 gal is way to small, even for a baby. They grow fast and need to climb.
