    Converting a Shower into Enclosure

    Well, I found out some things about Karma. Apparently she had either several broken ribs, or cysts on her ribs. I was also concerned about her ankle swelling as well. So, after reviewing a few threads on this site...I decided to bring her back to the store. I am inexperienced, and she would...

    Outdoor enclosures?

    What is the problem with direct sun light? Isn't the natural UV's put off by the sun much better than anything that we could ever supply?

    Drip/Rain VS Misting

    Well, natural climate (Yemen)...it does not rain very often. Apparently they get a good soaking from the fog the rolls over the land and moistens everything down. I suppose you did help me answer my own question (along with Dave's input). I will add a misting system, and maybe every other...

    Drip/Rain VS Misting

    I know im new in the Chameleon world, but I thought I would ask a decent question based on an observation that I made with Karma. I need to decide what type of "watering" system to implement into her new shower enclosure. I would mist 3-4 times per day, giving all of the leaves of her...

    Im still a bit confused on the whole tail curling thing. Other threads have info on tail breakage...etc...but I can't find much info on what it means. Also, I see a lot of photo's where the curl is really tight, but Karma's tail turl is sortof....loose? Is this a sign of a problem or is it...

    Converting a Shower into Enclosure

    Ok, now it comes time for more questions about the build. Right now I built up the inside a bit and added some texture with spacking (premative, I know). I will be using Great Stuff expanding foam for even more texture. Now, my question is... What do I use to waterproof the background? Is...

    Converting a Shower into Enclosure

    Yup, just read an article stating: Lucky Bamboo is not the true bamboo that Pandas eat; it is a member of the water lily family. Please check www.wfrw.org/faqs-and-facts.htm. You will find that the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (ASPCA) has Lucky Bamboo (Draecaena...

    Converting a Shower into Enclosure

    Ok, I am getting TONS of mixed reviews about "Lucky Bamboo." I just picked up this tree and Karma seems to have a blast climbing in it. She's go from the bamboo, then Cabella, then bamboo, then cabella. It almost looks like she is playing. I would like to know for SURE if LUCKY BAMBOO is...

    Converting a Shower into Enclosure

    I bought her at "Jacks Aquarium and Pets" in Findlay, OH (http://www.jackspets.com). I later learned to never shop there again, as I will now go to another store called "Pet Supplies Plus" as they know much more and are cheaper. Jacks sold me the moss to put in as substrate, they didn't know...

    Converting a Shower into Enclosure

    Im not sure how old she is....pet store said 5wks, but a few guys in a chat room said she was 4mo. Then again, I didn't show any pics then...I just said she was about 5in Nose to Tail. Thats half the reason I posted pics of her, so more people could chime in and maybe all come to a conclusion...

    Converting a Shower into Enclosure

    How do heat lamps create natural circulation? I mean, I doubted that I would need more ventalation than having over half the front and the entire front screened...but was just going to play it on the safe side. Does anyone here know a brand of a NON-TOXIC expanding foam to use on walls of an...

    Converting a Shower into Enclosure

    Yeah, I already thought about the Repti-glow....now have to decide to get 1 or 2, what size, and either 5.0 or 10.0. The Cabella is a real plant, just have some fake vines in there is all. I will be certain to buy a humidty guage soon, along with those suppliments you suggested. Thanks...
