The Water Monitor is the largest lizard that you can possibly own, dwarfed only in body size by the giant Komodo Dragon. The longest recorded lizard is actually a Water Monitor, measuring 10â 4â long! An average adult Water will reach at least 6 feet from tip to tail, and can easily weigh 40-60 pounds.t is my job to make sure that when you do choose a Water Monitor, or any new reptile, to be part of your life for the next 10 or 20 years, that you are prepared and that you can fulfill the lifelong needs of that reptile. Monitors are time consuming animals.
