Welcome.

He's awesome but there are some things that need to be changed. Do you know what locale he is, and are you sure he is a male.?

No waterfalls. He won't drink from it and its harbors bacteria. The whole enclosure needs to be sprayed, they usually will drink from the leaves so make sure to spray those well.

What kind of fruits and veggies.? And can you gutload locust.? Don't know a lot about them.

Supplements could be improved. I don't know anything about what you are using. On here we usually do a calcium without d3 every feeding and with d3 twice a month. Multivitamin twice a month as well.

What type of UVB do you have.?

Humidity could probably be higher, it needs to be at lowest 50%.

He needs some more foilage. Try or find a real plant or two. Some popular ones are ficus, pothos, and umbrella trees. Also hibicus.

Are the fans inside of the enclosure.?
