Ahh, if you've already got them listed it probably isn't an issue, but I suppose it's *always* a good idea to check

we've got a four year old spectacle caiman and believe me a 5 ft tank isn't big enough at that age I now house him in a 8ft x 3ft x 4ft and even that isn't big enough. It is an aggressive sod.. I am looking for dwaf cuviers now too. I also have a nile crocodile and a pair of american alligators which I love to bits. I much prefer the american alligators' character. I am suprised at how many people buy spectacles as they are one of the more nutty ones. As an adult you will need a room or an outdoor heated enclosure.

Amsterdam - Holland, Germany and from the US. I have been keeping reptiles for over 25 years and have got to know some excellent breeders which I have never lost contact with while living in London. I can get near enough anything appart from cuivers which I am working on and perhaps almost there.

I am not having a go by the way i'm simply curious. My spectacle is very aggressive and will launch himself out of the tank when trying to feed him. I have changed tanks 3 times in the last 2 years and will have to simply prepare an outdoor area like I have for our alligators and nile.

Some photos up of my animals:http://s662.photobucket.com/albums/uu342/royalpythons/
