Hello, welcome to the forum 
It does look to be curving a bit, what is your vitamin dusting schedule for him?
Here is a great caresheet i always recommend to new people with Veileds - https://www.chameleonforums.com/blogs/chameleonsinmyhouse/395-veiled-chameleon-care-sheet.html
I would also recommend getting rid of the waterfall, I know it looks nice but they very quickly become too hard to keep clean.

I dust his crickets/meal worms every other day.
And I go between Reptivite and ReptoCal. I got the waterfall because of I thought it was a good source of water, are they unhealthy for them?
I've had him for about 4 months. Does it look like he might have it?

I dust everyday, nearly every item for my Veileds. Mostly plain calcium (no d3), twice a month with added d3, once or twice a month a multivit.
I think he does have mbd, yes, but a very mild case starting up. I think it would be best to have a vet check him, you will probably get calcium injections to give him a quick boost.
Most chams wouldn't drink from a waterfall, but they do like to poop in them (I speak from personal experience). An escaped cricket in there with a poo for a day might still look clean (if it gets into the back.....). It will be spraying bacteria all in the air round the cage though. It's not unhealthy when it's new, but if you don't clean it well everyday then it will get unhealthy soon enough..........
