Ok I got a Veiled Chameleon. The enclosure is Exo Terra 18*18*24. I know some people are gonna tell me glass isnt good for Chameleons and all that good stuff so we can just skip that.
What im trying to find out is stuff like, are my plants to high? Giving my chameleon the ability to get to close to the lights.
Im using one Repti Glo 5.0 Compact and one 60W Sun Glo Neodymium Daylight lamp. The Repti Glo is in the left part of my compact top and the sun glo is on the right side. Are these the right type lights i need? Do I need to get another dome for a basking light? If so what type should I use. The cool side of my enclosure is steady at about 72 and up higher is about 80-85 but that is withing 6 inches of the heat bulb which seems to close for my chameleon to be in my opinion.
Im pretty sure from reading some other post that I should take the waterfall out.I put it in there to try to keep the humidity up but I have a Monsoon on the way that im told i should used distilled water in so I think I have that part covered. Unless someone has some input on that.
Was also wondering if there was something I could use such as a small LOW spinning fan to help circulate the air.
Im sure I have more questions but ill wait for a response to these. Thanks
