Don't hesitate asking questions as we are all here to help others and learn ourselves. I recommend replacing the fake plants with all live plants as veiled are kinda known as leaf munchers. Here's a couple of mine to give you some ideas on yours.

Beautiful set up….love it and thank you
I have the background plastic rather than leaving it mesh
I’m waiting on it’s bigger home 2x2x4 since my life plants are actually out growing the medium sized enclosure I have now
I have 4 plants 2 small and 2 medium size

That looks good lots of foliage and seeing a fogger hose. I maybe wrong but it looks like you have a compact (coil) uvb bulb, if so you will want to upgrade to a linear T5HO fixture and uvb bulb. I like Arcadia's ProT5 fixtures and bulbs.

I did at first until I came across the slimline tropical fixture
Once the light kind of starts going out I will replace the bulb with the ProT5
I got the bulb as a gift

Hello! The problem with the coil bulbs is the uvb is unable to penetrate deeper into the enclosure where our chameleons actually need it. We often find chameleons with MBD due to these coil uvbs. If you have a T5 HO linear uvb I would suggest using it now so your darling chameleon can get the light it needs to develop strong healthy bones.
