Always supervise your ig while swimming in a made for human swimming pool, and be careful he doesn't head straight for you and try to use you as a raft! Allow 24-48 hours AFTER your pool has been treated with chemicals (chlorine,rust inhibitors,fungicides) They can only hold their breath underwater for 30-60 minutes (marine iguanas usually up to an hour) Nice if pool is heated/solar heated too!
Always make sure your ig has pooped for the day you don't wanna salmonella bay right! water is a natural stimulant for igs to poop ;-) Your ig should be rinsed off BEFORE and AFTER swimming. Before to help rid any feces, urates off his body,
After because of the chemical residue.
