Flexarium and UVB

Hi, I've read from some thread that the screen mesh of flexarium blocks more uvb than some other aluminium screen cage and some advise to use 10.0 uvb. I'm getting a flexarium 175 gallon in 2 weeks, it's already been shipped. My question is, if I use a UVB 5.0, will it be sufficient for my panther chameleon? If its not, then can I just give him more D3 every month?
 
Yes less UVB gets through the flexarium material
And No and no in the other 2,Lol

You can over supplement him/her and they can get D3 poisoning (D3 should only be given 2x a month). In this case it's not a good idea to double or triple dose to compensate. Just replace your 5.0 with a 10.0 and be safe!
