5.0
UVB - 290-310NM
Range - 12 inches
percentage - 5%
10.0
UVB 290-310NM
Range - 24 inches
percentage - 10%
Those are the differences between the Reptisun 5.0 and 10.0 UVB fluorescent bulbs. Many users only upgrade to the 10.0 with tall cages other then that the 5.0 works just fine...
That looks great Nico, Oscar must be really happy. Did Oscar finally beat that protozoan strike he was under, I think I remember reading he did. He looks absolutely amazing Nico, congratz on him and the great cages as well bud.
This is everything I've gathered so far in my 3 months of researching Chameleon's. Everyone of them have something good to offer and give some great insight into caring and husbandry.

yeah I've been reading up on these as well but I haven't found any information as to how much UVB they put out or in what range of nanometers they emit UVB in so I'm sure how well they are. Exo-Terra and Reptisun both state these ranges in their magazines which are very important to know. As far...
For the mesh cages like the flexarium's some use the 10.0 and some use the 5.0 the only difference in the two is that the 10.0 puts out 5% more UVB than the 5.0 and 10.0 extends UVB up to 24 Inches where as the 5.0 only 12 inches. Either work just as fine. I would only suggest if u use the 10.0...
That's correct, those are basking bulb distances, regular house bulbs will have to be placed much closer of course. :) I have a 60 watt that sits on my felxarium all day long with no melting or fire. not to say that it's 100% safe though, I keep it raised a couple inches off the material just to...
Are you kidding, I respect vegetarians. I just know I could never live as one. To me there is nothing better than a nice juicy steak, or prime rib. Hamburgers with lots of cheese, and burritos deep fried and covered in chili and cheese. MMMMmmm... I do enjoy many fruits and I crave a good salad...
Could you direct the line into a small 3-5 gallon bucket, heat it up from there then have the misting system pull water directly from the bucket instead of from the main water line?
This one of the recommendations I found on adequate lighting distant from cages, it works well for me.
40 Watt Basking Bulb
Distance From Bulb
6" = 110°
12" = 95°
18" = 80°
60 Watt Basking Bulb
Distance From Bulb
6" = 120°
12" = 101°
18" = 89°
75 Watt Daylight Bulb
Distance...
Geez, ratios, consistency, mold worries. Makes you wonder how any chameleon's ever hatch in the wild. All I've ever seen on video's is the female finds a place to leave her eggs, digs a hole, lays them them then that's it. Maybe they have some sort of beacon that detects perfect soil/moisture...
These are sites that lists quite a few plants that are known to be safe for Chameleon's. The most popular one's are listed on chameleon forums but this site has much more of an array of non-toxic plants.

I'm usually on Halo3 For Xbox, gamertag is Dracollin, anyone can hit me up if they want. I can't wait for Vegas 2 to hit this March as well as Too Human :)
$110 dang. Is the darn thing made out of gold brass plating or something? We're talking about a freaking metal rack here, not the luxury cruise liner of fine antique racks, geez. I like the one's that pohchunyee posted, at least they are affordable and I'll still have money left over for the...
I bought a 38 gallon reptarium for my Cham and at first I wasn't to happy about it. Especially after reading all the bad replies about them. But as Chameleon Palace said, they work just fine. You should be happy with the 260 gallon cage you bought. After a while mine grew on me and I like it...
I'm going to have to agree with Justin on this one. Nothing in the world scares me more than a spider and just looking at Marvin is about to make me convulse. lol
