Are Masobe the largest of the Paroedura?

Yep. P. tanjaka come in close at second, with males reaching nearly 7 inches in length. It's a shame that P. tanjaka was bred routinely here in the US back in the late 90's and on to about 2002-ish. It seems they've all disappeared from the US now and we should have been more responsible with them. Live and learn.

I don't know that I've ever seen P. tanjaka. That is a shame that something that was routinely bred is now pretty much gone. Goes to show that you should never take anything for granted. A lot of the species that were considered pet store junk when I was a kid and first getting into herps are now either completely unavailable or very expensive and considered high end now.
