Yes you would want to use a 5.0 UVB tube. A standard house hold bulb is good for temps in most cases. Of course you would want to have a thermometer in your chameleons basking spot to make sure the ideal temps are met.
It can take up to a few weeks for your veiled to be comfortable in his new location.

There is more information at my site about temps and basic info in the what to know section.

Oops. I read through it, then went back to re-skim the message, and last thing i saw was veiled.

Although ... I think the husbandry should be about the same.

That statement does not come from experience ... only reading and talking with other keepers about how they keep them.

Personally, I don't think I would change much (if anything) if I were to switch from Veileds to Panthers.
