Ok usally we take them out as soon as we see them as don’t want a colony of GALS, and usally just freeze the eggs. So aslong as there out of the snail cage before they hatch they should be okay?

I’ll keep a look out on Ebay then thankyou 👍. We get 100s of GAL snail eggs, can he eat them/would they be good clean up crew? Obviously they’d get big but I’d remove when too big, I know cross species tanks is a big no no with chameleons, but do these fall into that?

Thankyou 😊, he’s a sheddy boi atm, he’s just reaching a year old and usually part sheds but this time it’s all at once It’s half recessed into the Viv, I cut a diagonal hole out the Viv, the ballast and electrics are outside, the reflector and bulb inside, I posted the build progress when I...

That’s something I’ll try, if i can find them cheap, here in uk mantis are pets and not feeders so can pay $15 for one 😅. Cleanup crew get fed leaf litter, veg scraps, and isopod powdered food, they are thriving tbh, I had troubles at the start with them keeping up, but they’ve bred a lot and...

It’s I ficus Benjamina, totally safe, all plants are veiled approved, fully live bio active setup 🙂, I thought it maybe him but I’d see no reason for him to munch there, water dosnt reach there and he’s plenty off other, less tough plants that are dripping in water

Sorry for your Cham 😕, I’ve had him a year now so hopefully have a lot of time left. Gnats would make sense, we have GAL snails and had problems with them, what’s the solution, for snails we just redid the Viv but that’s not ideal for him

I have a ficus Benjamina, hardy things, been thru a Viv move and still surviving, it was about half the size it is now have to chop it maybe once a month to stop it climbing into the lights. I do fertilise mine with weak houseplant feed every so often, as found it kept dropping leaves when I didn’t

It’s driving me mad. Something is eating my plants, I’ve looked everywhere for hours and cannot find any feeders that have escaped, I don’t think they look like chameleon bites, (he usually takes the full leaf 😆). So what could it possibly be? There’s isopods and springtails in there but I’ve...

Thankyou ✌️

Thankyou, I now have a spare large exo terra, think I may just terrascape that to stop faffing with this one and let him settle 😅😂, next project is buying the proviv cabinet for this and seeing if I can get some frogs in a tank below him 😁

Believe me I know, I think my girlfriend was over the moon when I got this job as our reptile/amphibian bill dropped significantly not having to pay full price for plants 😂, only downsize is in the UK (idk where you are) a lot of garden centres have pet/fish/reptile shops attached, so the money...

Thank you! I’m still moving stuff, I’m not sure it’ll ever be 100% complete 😂 This is as of writing this reply 😂

So here is the finished vivarium, (minus the extra fan and vents that are on the way), but finished enough that I can put him in and get him used to his new home. There’s some photos where he isn’t too happy but I think he just need time to figure it out and realise the big scary chameleon he...

Okay that makes sense, i think I’m gunna leave him out 1 more day, it’s practically finished all plants added. I don’t smell any chemicals from the resin anymore so a day with the fan for ventilation and plants should clean the air to 100% safe for him 😀. Apparently the PR resin is safe once...

So nearing the end of the build and getting stuff into final places, after some advice, what’s the best way to get him used to his new home quickly and with minimal stress? I thought maybe just a few hr before bedtime so he has time to explore but then also rest not long after, wake up and be...

The waterfall is no more, partly because I had enough trying to make the container on the bottom fit and coudnt and partially because it turns out resin eats polystyrene 😂, nearly there now with the modified Viv

No I’m not going to it came with the old Viv and is staying in there

Been slow on Viv building as been flat out at work, however I work as a delivery driver for a plant nursery, which has its perks, here’s the final plant selection minus ficus and the few small plants in with him

Also I’m trying not to add branches or anything that make it easy for him to drink from, essentially making him go for easier options, the waterfall really is humid at and decor

No I’m aware @Sonny13, my plan is to have a false floor essentially with stones ontop so the water is gone, the pool will be below floor level if that makes sense, also easier to clean as can just take the mesh and rocks and throw them in the sink and pour boiling water over, I’m going to have...
