While I was making that part I started staining the wood. Next part was to get the tank planted, so that the plants would be well established by the time water and the cement piece were installed. The cement piece has to cure for 30 days before it is exposed to submersion, to allow the chemicals...

The next step was to make the inside of the tank. I got this idea from a website that makes custom aquascapes for aquariums. I figured if it was good enough to be submerged, why not partial? I measured the inside of the tank and cut the foam pieces to fit in those dimensions. After that, its...

This is the top enclosure. The tank is a 75Gal tank. 4ft wide, 18" deep, 18"tall. I had to reseal it and buff out some scratches. It was a Craigslist find. Next tank will be nicer, thats for sure... Here is the top with the bottom before the door was attached With the door and...

Ok, so I uploaded a ton of pics last night that show the build from start to finish. I started out with research to see if I could find if something like this had been done. At the Columbus Zoo, they have some amazing displays that seek to create the most natural environment possible for the...

We named our little guy Gron Firben. It means Green Lizard in Danish, my wife's heritage. :)

Is 70% too high for veiled's? I read that between 50 and 80 was acceptable, but I never got a firm number. I welcome everyone's input, as I know these guys have very unique living requirements and this is my first effort with chams. :)

Thanks for the welcome! Yes, Molly, you are correct. The tank serves as the reservoir for the waterfall. Thanks for the well wishes! The build and research was quite fun and now I hope to enjoy our little buddy for a good long while! This site was extremely helpful in my research on how to care...

Wow!!! That is amazing!

Thanks Dom! Also, to the concern of bacteria, There is a filter that the water runs through to make sure its all clean :) I do lose a few crickets to suicide in the water though. The fish take care of that!! :D

Thanks for the suggestions! I would like to start gutloading with fresh veggies, but we are still trying to get situated with a cricket house. For now they are in a tiny plastic thing. It will be easier once we get them in a bigger container. What do you use to store yours? The waterfall...

Hi! My name is David. For Christmas, my wife wanted a chameleon. She has never had any reptiles for pets, (I have) so I took on the task of the habitat and everything else. All she has to do is feed it. Lucky her... Anyways, we got our little guy last weekend from a local reptile show. He is...
