I wouldn't turn the AC up very high, just enough to keep the terrarium from getting to warm.
The Chameleon Handbook also mentioned the fact that AC dries out the terrarium and I was thinking of humidifying the air as it leaves the AC or putting a damp cloth over the outake.

Thanks for the feedback,
The problem is that I would like to have complete control of the temperature in my terrarium.

Thanks for the feedback. :)

Here it is...
Hi, I've been thinking to get a chameleon (a humid species such as jacksons or quadricornis) and would like to know if a screen or glass terrarium would be better.

However, would a...
