    Using T5 fixture with T5HO bulb?

    I'm looking into replacing my current Reptisun 5.0 T5HO that is about 5 months old with the Arcadia 6% T5HO, and noticed that Arcadia says it "must be used with a T5HO fixture". I currently have a dual T5 fixture for Bernard that I read to purchase somewhere on here. One bulb is a 6500k bulb for...

    Burn or dark red coloration?

    Hey guys! Bernard just had the shed of his lifetime and some very vibrant new colors have emerged. I’m honestly surprised too because he’s 2, I didn’t think he would change much more. Anyway, I’m slightly concerned with his spine, in some lights it looks like it’s just dark red but in other...

    Should I switch to 10.0 with larger enclosure?

    We just got Nard a 24/24/48 cage, and I have a Reptisun 5.0 linear UVB bulb. 95% of the foliage is real in his enclosure. What do you suggest for UVB/lighting to keep him and his plants happy? Also how is everything set up? Also got a MistKing, just haven’t installed it yet. Thanks!

    Don't know if there's a thread like this, but if y'all or anything like me, you have at least one photo of your chameleon snuggled up looking like a sleepy puppy dog. Anyone want to contribute? Here's Bernard telling me with his eyes that he wants the sun turned off. :rolleyes:

    Reptibreeze Medium Open Air Screen Cage

    I bought this back in May and decided I need a bigger cage, figured someone might want to save a little money on a very gently used cage. I will clean it up before shipping or pick-up. Its 16x16x30, asking $50, bought it for $80. In Tampa FL area.

    Ordering discoid roaches?

    Just wondering if anyone has a recommendation for where I can order Discoid roaches? I'm in FL, so I can't get Dubias, and I've always went to the herp shop to purchase Discoids, but it's about 30 min away from my house, and 50% of the time they're out. I just want a more convenient and surefire...

    Help with identifying bug he just ate

    Hey guys! I was taking photos of Benedict on some vines when this weird bug flew up. He immediately went to eat it. I thought it was a stink bug at first but it definitely is not upon further research. Does anyone know what this is?

    Hey guys, just thought I'd shoot an update for our runt baby Bogart. to spare you finding his background story I got him from a breeder and he showed up with somewhat severe MBD for being only 4 months old. His front limbs both look like this and his back ones look like Z's. He was also the...

    Chomping down in the FL sun!

    Benedict turned 5 months yesterday! It's beautiful here in FL today so I let him sit outside on one of our hibiscus. He was on edge, trying to catch bugs so I put some crickets all over it and let him go to town. :) Later I'll post a thread dedicated to his brother with MBD. He's almost caught...

    An Ebenezer appreciation thread

    Ebenezer passed away on the 5th. He was my best buddy. The sweetest cham ever. He hated being in his cage and he would come on adventures with me. He had some eye problems that would come and go and it made it hard for him to aim. Besides that he was always healthy. I would have to hand feed...
