I can attest to that. It is a good idea to make tanks progressivley larger and not simply put a baby in an adult-sized tank. You see, I went out and bought myself a black throat monitor named Peekaboo. I loved her, and she was intelligent and personable. But because I put her in an adult sized cage (about 4'x6') she didn't get enough light 'forced' on to her, and she died of cold. Apparently, she didn't know enough to get into the light where it was warm.

Please, don't make my mistake.
