What size cage would an adult sav or nile need? I would like to get one but I want to make sure I have enough space for it first.

niles can get up to 7 feet (2.1 meters), but averages 4.5-5.5 feet (1.5-1.8 meters)...
savs are Typically three to four feet, but some have been known to reach five feet in length...
so both would need custom builts, but not sure on the size myself...

Large lizards generally need more room than large snakes, due to their higher activity levels. I would suspect that you will need something similar to what an iguana should be housed in, but perhaps with less height and more floor space?? I'm no expert on monitors, but you will need a very large enclosure.

at the moment my nile is 4feet long and im giving him up to someone with a room sized inclosure for him. im not exactly sure if a sav would need that much room it seems to me that all mine do is sleep and wait for food, and he's in a 180gal tank.
