Yes, it is- a very large healthy adult male by the looks of it. I hope that aquarium was only temporary- very... very... temporary. Someone get him out of there, please!! Nomi

My goodness, I believe that is the biggest WD I've ev er seen. I wonder how old he is! They had to be transferring him, there wasn't any lighting or heat sources.

Yes it is an Aussie Water Dragon and a big one at that. IIRC he is just "visiting" at a reptile show.

Yes it's an australian water dragon and a big one. I hope it was only a temporary cage too. I have never seen adult reptiles at reptile shows though.

Yes they are neat but not as colorful as Chinese Water Dragons. It looks like it's the breeding season judging by his color.

i believe the awd's are just as colourful as chinese water dragons. AWD's have dark and light-bluey green backs and males have red stomach, where CWD's have just different shades of green... i may be wrong though

From what I have read, awd are grey with black stripes and during the breeding season males get a red belly or back. ( I can't remember which.)

Yeah, it is a kinda dullish greeny-grey colour. I think males have the red chest all year round, not just in breeding season, not sure on that one

Hey Guy’s Thanks for the complement Pooka is right it was at the reptile show I was at last month and they had a female next to him and they were a mated pair. They had their babies there as well. It was a great show.
