I have a 50 watt sun bulb and 2 12" 5.0 UVB at the top of her cage, Her back is maybe 6-7" from the top of the cage plus the 2-3 inches the bulb is retracted into the dome fixture. Her color seem quite dull lately and quite whitish. The temperature right at the top of the branch so an inch lower...
Right now I am using 50 watt daylight bulb, although for a new setup I am thinking of using the exo terra sun ray.. thats all the zoo here apparently uses, so it provides UVB and heat...
Since I want to go with a glass terrarium I am gonna heat one side and leave the other side alone so that...
Interesting you say this, I am looking into this as well, I know Zoo med makes a dual LED/T5 system that is supposed to be superb, low profile...

I have a female Ambilobe panther chameleon... I looked at the dragon strands and while they are awesome it is cheamer for me to get 2x a 24x24x48 zoomed cage and put them together than get a dragonstrand...
So if I do this I will get two zoomed cages and put them together to make a 48Wx24Dx48T...
I'd agree with Shadow Cry, After the purchase I would take the reptile to the vet and send the vet report to the authorities... recently a shop near me was closed down due to inappropriate condition for animals, although It seemed fine to me..
Thinking of adding an
Orchid
Hibiscus
Pothos
a bird of paradise flower...
The worry here is:
1) safe for the chameleon?
I know the hibiscus and the pothos are safe any ideas about the Orchid or Pothos...
2) Lighting requirements?
I am looking at the solar ray light by exo terra and...
depends where in Canada you are...
Alot of sites/stores carry or can order either Exo-Terra which the XL is 2x2x4 or you can get the Zoo med repti breeze version... both are about $200 CAD.
I did contact dragonstrand.com and they do ship to Canada for their Large 45.25″ wide x 44.25″ high x...
Where is the panther chameleon???
I would offer the shop what you think the chameleon is worth... just because the price tag is high doesn't mean they wont take a lower offer...
Try explaining to them that the chameleon is extremely unhealthy and take some time and money to bring his health...
yeah, shoulda done that when I got the panther... now i have a medium cage for a baby male that I plan to get though...
Unfortunately petco does not ship to Canada and is not in Canada
As for compact fluorescents i"m not a fan of those
I do have plastic vinyl... I think... on the sides of the tank... Its the stuff they use for the fish backgrounds... makes the tank look better and does the same job....
Problem with anything I order from the states is
1) shipping
2) I have to pay duty
Keep in mind I live in Canada.
The...
It is not your fault by any means...
The cage I have now is the medium repti breeze 18x18x32 - Not the greatest to setup with ledges and plants
I could keep the lighting setup and everything, upgrade the cage and get some branches...
$200 for the cage
$100 for the plants
$20 - ledges...
The dragon stand idea is fantastic, but now I need a bigger cage
I am thinking of upgrading already... why ooo why....
anyways....
EXO terra 36 x 18 x 36
2-3 misters per cage... Yes thats alot but bigger cage requires more misting...
a dripper system for 2 spots in the cage... Wouldn't be...
I dont like have a huge ugly pot at the bottom of the cage... I did go to the local greenhouse today and none were of size that was usable with the tank i currently have.,.... will have to wait anyways
