    Forum communities lately…

    ...the spice of life" applies here with a large group of chameleons available for posting here on the Chameleon Forums. I agree about being bioactive with enclosures. My greenhouse the way I have got the settings set to go "Poop" is gone in about a half a day. There is nothing residual after...

    Moss in bioactive

    Trying to think of ways to optimize the space in a bioactive enclosure. In trying to maximize the amount of green it occurred to me to add moss to the substrate. Is this a viable option?

    Electra’s egg saga.

    ...🥳 Of course, I’ll have to make sure she never sees a boy again, but I’ll be keeping her lay bin in her tank anyhow…or maybe just make hers bioactive. She was such a good sweetheart and sat on my shoulder for the entire drive there and back (total of almost 4 hours!). I didn’t think to get any...

    Getting New Plants, advice preferred!

    ...several plants lined up and once all have been cleaned, they all get one more good rinse before quickly being brought in and put in my (bioactive) enclosures. No matter how thorough you clean or the size or type of plant, it is inevitable that some little buggies will be living in your plant...

    Maybe sick or I’m exaggerating?

    That enclosure that you have, can you make it bioactive? Or not because Of the screen?

    Spruced up the outdoor enclosures for summer!

    Oh cool, I really like the idea of having a summer outdoor house for a chameleon. My only concern would be the bioactive set up.

    I took the plunge-Meet Eja

    ...is actually a isopod. I grab some from my yard. I guess I grab some pregnant isopods. :) I haven’t put springtails in Eja or Wiseman like I wanted to. But I actually found some type of springtails in Wiseman enclosure. Not sure where they come from. Not sure if the Repti soil is bioactive...

    Setting up Enclosure

    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.

    Anyone Have a Picture of a Relaxed Non-Gravid Female Carpet Chameleon?

    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. 😄

    Any recommendations?

    ...is a Betta Terra Terrarium 100 x 50 x 100cm and has a glass bottom. We seem to have put a lot of weight in it (clay balls, soil, plants etc). Is there any chance we add too much weight and the glass breaks?! We're trying to make it bioactive, so will be adding more plants, soil etc... Thanks!

    Got my enclosure, LF panther Chams

    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

    Urine smell

    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.

    New chameleon owner!

    ...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...

    Pros and Cons of going Bioactive?

    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...

    Tips on hibiscus

    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...

    Fan Air Duct for Glass Enclosure

    ...had 8 chams of 4 species in high elevation CO. Ultrasonic foggers, misting systems, hand spraying, drippers, adjustable plastic sheeting on screen cages, dense foliage & cage substrates, all played their parts. Sometimes all at the same time. The only thing I haven't used was a bioactive...
