Setting up a new cage

[ckranz]

Ok so i'm looking for the best lighting option for a panther Chameleon. I have a 18 in reptisun 5.0 that I want to put on my 24x24x48 cage what is the best fixture I also want to put a grow bulb in their for my plants. Now doing some research I'm wondering if that is enough UVB? Can I get a fixture from Lowe's or Dome Depot? What do you guys use?
Thanks

I have found a particular shop light that lowes/homedepot carries to be more than perfect.
There are some pictures of it here:

It fits right on top of the cage, will hold your UVB and plant light, and is cheap.

Thanks that looks great. Now wishing I would have ordred a 24 in bulb.

I think they make smaller fixtures that are the same design. You could do the same thing with an 18" fixture, just put it across the corner
The industrial velcro is awsome, it keeps it super secure.
Im pretty sure that stuff could lift a small car...
