Introducing myself

[rpgamer97]

So where to start? I am just now getting into the chameleon hobby, tho I am not new to caring for pets. I am currently running 3 fish tanks right now: a 75 gal freshwater community tank, 85 gal Cichlid tank, and a 20 gal freshwater puffer tank. Currently i believe i have everything i need set up and ready to house my chameleon when i get one, except the actual heat lamp bulb. Have a 24 x 24 x 48 reptibreeze, 18" hood with a Reptisun 5.0, 4 heat lamps (tho i'm pretty sure i wont need them all), an adjustable time power strip, 2 hand held misters, a Habba Mist, thermometer and hygrometer for enclosure, digital thermometer for basking spot, about 24 feet of bendable vines, and over 30 feet of bendable leafed vines. The only thing i don't have yet is a live plant, just cant decide what i want to put in it. Have plenty of supplements on hand as well: Zilla Calcium supplement food spray, Rep-cal Herptivite, Fluker's Calcium, and Zoomed repticalcium. i don't intend to use those all together. So maybe if anyone can tell me which the best one is, ill just go with that one.

I'm really leaning towards a Jackson, I love the look. Tho it is my first, I realize it might be best to go with a veiled. I plan to check out the breeders at the expo this weekend and come home with one.
