Wow ok. Next time I get another croton, I will definitely try that. Thank you!

Oh really? I always thought you weren't supposed to let it stay dry, at least not for too long

True. I kind of take everything with a grain of salt. Not because I don't believe people but because it's not worth the risk to my cham. So I try to cross reference, search on here and get opinions before I make a final decision 😊 Especially as a new cham owner, if I don't feel fully confident...

I found it on this list: https://www.madcham.de/en/pflanzen-fuers-terrarium/ The calathea orbifolia and the peacock plant are the only two calathea plants that I have right now. One is on the bottom of the cage for shade and the other is hanging under the basking branch and my veiled doesn't...

I think my croton lasted maybe a week before the leaves started to fall off. I tried putting it outside but wasn't able to revive it. Then again, I live in Texas, so maybe the heat was too much for it? Beautiful plant though. Mine just didn't stand a chance lol I'm going to my local garden...

Oh wow! I have wanted to get a Tredescantia pallida and a bromeliad, but wasn't sure if I could put them with my veiled. Nerve plants too if I could find one (so far, no luck). I did have a croton in there but it started to die pretty quickly. I have heard that crotons are hard to keep alive though?

Nice! So far I have a calathea orbifolia, peacock plant, pothos, money tree, and an umbrella plant. I'm looking into getting a couple more with more color or flowers

Good to know! What plants do you use for your cham?

I really want to add a hibiscus but I would need to upgrade my plant light. How strong does it need to be?

Ok, thanks!

Here's a picture of it

I recently found a philodendron birkin plant that I haven't been able to find too much info on. It's apart of the Araceae family which I have seen being used in some enclosures so I would assume it should be ok. I mostly just want to use it for shading towards the bottom of the cage which my...

I've seen a lot of people use philodendron plants in their cham's enclosures. But i'm wondering what species of philodendron is ok to use in a veiled enclosure. I usually go by the chameleon academy list and a few other sites/lists that have been recommended on here. I know the heartleaf and...

Definitely custom build!

Thanks! I'll look into both of those 😊

Ok, I will check those. Also off topic, but for my heat bulb I'm using a 60w led house bulb. I read that it needs to be an incandescent bulb. Should I still switch it out even though my temperature gun reads that the basking spot is at 80? I want to make sure it's emitting the amount of heat...

I will definitely get more pothos. I like how fast they are growing too lol

No, I haven't. Just my local stores and nursery. What websites do you recommend?

I've been trying to find a wandering jew plant, but the only one I've been able to find is Tradescantia Pallida. Is this species still ok to use for a veiled or does it have to be tradescantia zebrina?

Each light has individual reflectors. So since my light isn't strong enough, would that limit what type of plants I could get? Maybe stick to medium to low light plants?
