Since I have double wide bioactive enclosures, I use heavy duty garage style shelving units (Edsel muscle racks). Before doing all of that, I had gotten the ReptiBreeze stands, which worked very well with the ReptiBreezes. For a short time, I had an enclosure sitting on a card table.

I have her in a 24x24x24 glass with bioactive bottom to maintain humidity. Our winters are dry here. She does well. Yes bigger is better though. 😄

Im in FL and working on a bioactive outdoor cage. Do you keep full time outdoors? And do you do bulbs or anything for temp and uv? Tell me everything😂

Also here is a great recommendation for a bioactive/drain table and stand. https://dragonstrand.com/product/2x2-bio-active-stand/?fbclid=IwZXh0bgNhZW0CMTEAAR7ehmyJQAPlmEmZ2MJfu7Wp9f-KIJvhfetYn3c8vTg6fqnyz75mWf8czcEE4g_aem_HquZJjP4qUwu5kXs2JVKLA

Is it normal for my Veiled habitat to always smell of urine? I did go bioactive with soil, drain rock, magnolia leaves isopods, springtails ect it seems most of the urine and or poop never makes it to the floor. Habitat is dense and thick with plants so usually just falls on the leaves it seems.

...simple, so I didn’t have to move many plants around. There have been times when I’ve needed to do a bigger thing and I grab a small flashlight and go in at night in the dark when my chameleon is asleep. Even though I switched to bioactive a while ago, I still do big changes at night in the...

Debating on switching over to bioactive after an infestation of fungus gnats. What are the most important reasons for switching other than cleaning? Is bioactive possible and easily done in a screen enclosure? I feel like I've seen mostly glass for bioactive. Does the CUC ever get out? How long...

...strand on many things. He may even be on the forum here but I don’t know his name on it. He is very intelligent and extremely knowledgeable on chams. I’m sure he has articles out there somewhere. 😊 Found something...

What I use for fertilizer is the frass from my insects…silkworms mainly, although I have also used frass from superworms. I have a hibiscus in one of my enclosures and up until she’s gotten old, the biggest threat to its health was being eaten to the nub by my veiled girl. Also, I accidentally...

Any loose bugs in the cage? My clean up crews(isopods/millipedes/springtails) would delete poop within hours, but you don’t have bioactives…. Roaches/crickets/etc will happily eat chameleon poop too

Oh no quite the opposite! The enclosure is amazing, but I’m considering going down to 18x36 enclosures for the adults, and bioactive. I have limited space, so this would allow me to fit a trio and 10 baby cages all in the same footprint that this cage takes. It’s going well, I’ll go do an...

Yes! You can make it bioactive, they make trays to hold drainage layer. The enclosure you looked at could also work if the top is screened. It doesn’t look it but it may be me assuming because the lights are affixed inside the enclosure. But size wise it could work with proper airflow and...

...looking at a hybrid set up so not entirely mesh but mostly as I’d like to do a diy background like I have for my gecko. I also want to do bioactive. My problem is, there’s so much conflicting information online about everything. I’ve had a look through chameleon academy online also and...

I’ve had great success with dairy cow and dwarf white isopods for my bioactive setups.

Bioactive enclosures can be a great choice for chameleons if set up correctly! Learn what substrate to use, how to add in plants and branches, what isopods and clean up crew are recommended! Bioactive supplies and info: https://www.neptunethechameleon.com/bioactive

Looks great! More branches and plants definitely…make a nice little forest or jungle. Just have to put it out there - have you thought about setting it up bioactively? It would be a bit more work and fussing over, but it’s easier to do than it seems. Btw, I love the artwork on the side. 💗

...of these options are easiest to install before assembling the enclosure. *if using trellis, make sure to account for the pieces butting up against each other in the corners with your measurements. Here’s one set up with ledges. Trellis details Trellis set up (double wide bioactive enclosure)

Thanks! Trioceros deremensis are great. Sorry to disappoint "Charles" is one of my past Trioceros deremensis. I am still working out bacteria issues in my bioactive greenhouse. Best Regards Jeremy A. Rich

Of course I once again forget to post a link. :rolleyes: Here is the bioactive guide I learned from and follow. https://www.chameleonforums.com/blogs/intro-to-bio-activity.2429/

Cute comments the chameleons are making! Nice setup too.
