Well i changed from a coil reptisun to the 18 inch tube style reptiglo 5% also changed her basking spot from around 95 to 80-85. Since i changed these she stays a darker green than before, could the change in lighting stress her out? I tried to get a pic but as soon as she saw the camera she got darker :-(
 
How long ago did you change the lights? It may be a reaction to the change in light intensity, but it could also be that the lower basking temp means it takes her a little longer to warm up. Not a bad thing, just different.

What species is this again? Sorry I can't remember offhand. Can she hide from view? If she's not feeling secure in her space she may show stress colors despite the lighting.
 
She is a young veiled cham, about 4 inches from nose to vent. She has several plants to hide in, her cage is exactly the same except for the lights. Is this something i should wait out or give her one of her old lights back?
