[paytonsanaghan]

This is the cage

I'm confused. Is there a question there?

I don't see a linear UVB or plant light (which it looks like it'll need—looks awfully dark in the pic).

I'm also confused by the floor. Am I seeing pots on top of dirt? It should be either/or no substrate at all or full-bioactive.

I also see mist nozzles, but no drainage.

As Klyde said, you'll need a linear t5ho fixture and 5.0 or 6% bulb.

I agree about the dirt at the bottom. The plants and stuff look pretty good but maybe some more branches / vines for more pathways.

You can move your chameleon in whenever, but get the lights as soon as you can.

You're still going to need drainage and a plant light.

Not for anything more than 3-6" away.

Many folks here use this for a 24 x 24 x 48 enclosure. It's got enough power to reach the nether regions.

I'd avoid anything other than white LEDs.
