I have only seen my Cham drink once, it was right after he got delivered and placed into his new home. In the 2 weeks sense I have not seen him drink, but by checking his bowel movements I am sure hes nice an healthy. They have a post here about the poo and what it should look like, One thing...
Lighting:
T5HO 5.0 UVB lighting not outside much.
Ok so I will need:
Calcium with D3 2 times a month.
Calcium with out D3 daily
Multi Vitamin. 2 rimes a month
Does this seem right?
Also I need names of the best ones please.
I sure will keep that in mind. I might take some of the smaller 30 second settings and turn them off, and do a mid day 2 min as well we will see once the cham gets here. I think once he is in the tank alot will change with how he likes or needs it.
Alright check out this post with an update

I did decide to go with a panther and not a Jackson.
Getting ready to order a Cham this is my setup.
Exo Terra 36 L X 18 W X 36 T
T5HO 5.0 UVB
Grow lights for the plants.
Light on a timer from 7 to 8 30
Feeder Cup
Mistking mister ( one 2 min blast in the morning and then 30 second bursts during the day.)
3 combo temp/humidity meters
temp...
so what I am going to use is a glass terrarium. Please i know I tested a screen cage and i could not keep the temps and humidity right.
But I am going to use the dowels on the back and 2 sides to more hold the live vines and branches for sure now.
I was thinking of coating them with some colors like this

and then the over coat to make sure that it is safe. I will have at least 2 weeks to cure once it is painted I have not got the Cham and still...
Question would painted dowels covered with something like this be ok?

I have heard yes and I have heard no.
I do not really have an issue so far with drainage on the EXO terra 18 X 18 X 36 I dont have the Cham in the terrarium yet I am waiting for it to balance out first.
OK so I am sold on the mistking as the mister I am going to use, however what is really involved in the install, are the pumps gravity feed or what? and if you could show me some examples of your tank setup that would be appreciated.
