Forgive me if this has been mentioned before but I have read several forum posts here about Chameleons and Enclosures. I have worried time and time about my little guys health and the biggest most important thing about a Chameleon is the UVB Lighting
We all know a Reptisun 5.0 Bulb is the top notch bulb currently on market to use
What we dont know and that I dont see in a lot of threads with people having issues is..
Remove the plastic light cover on your light fixture!!
UVB is absorbed by plastic how can you ensure your little guy gets proper UVB if its mostly absorbed in your light fixtures plastic cover?
if this has been posted before Sorry but again I am seeing a lot of threads where huge discussions go on about Lights but nobody mentions to remove the plastic....
I hope this helps people solve some issues they may be having. Remember Chameleons hide sickness well and by the time they go downhill due to a enclosure or care issue it makes it twice as hard to bring them back
