Still no chameleon. Still getting together all the info that I need/want for the enclosure. I've got the enclosure and lights figured. I'm currently building a stand and hood. UVB bulb will be in shortly. MistKing should be here on Friday.
Currently I'm chewing on the dripper. I have a nice 6 stage RO filter that I use for drinking water to my home. Where the Enclosure is going to be located, it would be a relatively simple thing to T off of the feed line and run a branch over to the chameleons enclosure. I've read a few comments in regards to dripper timing. I'd like to reduce the amount of excess water that will end up in the drain (I'm still chewing on that bit).
I'm assuming I'd like to have the dripper run for at least several hours during the day. I figure I can accomplish this through a small needle valve and a solenoid set to a timer.
I guess my main questions are these:
1. Is there any sort of recommended drip rate to optimize his ability to stay hydrated, but reduce waste water?
2. Does anyway have a recommendation on solenoids for this purpose? One with an included adapter would be preferable for me.
Any insights would be helpful!
Thanks,
Josh
