Didn't see the post about the bulb but yeah, I would get rid of that too. Chams can pop their eyes out of the socket though so it might be normal. Just a little bit freaky looking.:D

They can pop them out like that. The first time I saw one do it I freaked out too.

I'm just curious. How would calcium expire? What would happen to it?

Usually if they have their mouth open a lot they are too hot. I don't know much about Jacksons so I will let someone else comment on vitamins and calcium. I think they don't need as much as veileds and panthers and such.

Yeah, I was pretty much convinced it was a female before but it kept getting more colorful and sometimes I would think I would see a bulge and sometimes I wouldn't. Now I am seeing it more and more it seems.

Here are some updated photos I just took. Either it is a male or it is going to be the most colorful female I have ever seen.

I know it is recommended they be kept together but can more than one male be kept in an enclosure? I have heard differing opinions on this.

Yes she was. I was thinking they looked that way to me too. edit: She was bred but they didn't really mate for very long. Not nearly as long as they did the first time they bred. I put them together a couple of times but it was over very quickly and they went there separate ways.

Here is mine. Opinions?

I had been avoiding making a batch of wet gutload due to worrying about most of it wasting. I never thought about freezing it. I just mixed up a batch and put it in some cool looking outerspace and fruit shaped ice cube trays. The kids kept asking me what I was doing so I told them I was...

Frankly to me most of the time the natural colors look better on chams than the morphs. I do like the veileds with more yellow and blue though. The translucents just look sick to me and that one with more black doesn't look much better. I was in a pet store once and got to talking about...
