Does anybody see anything wrong with my setup or cham? Or does everything look good? And also the flukers calcium in one of the pics is going to be repcal w/out d3 in like a day or two. Sorry about how many pics there are. p.s. she is about to shed and she just grew into her mature colors(the blue and what is usually orange) so I cannot wait until she sheds and I get to see herfresh new skin lol. https://picasaweb.google.com/112223574612271896265/DropBox
 
There does seem to be light from a basking lamp in there though. It looks good to me.
 
I have had a basking light. Its just a 50watt bulb in a regular like 5 or 6 inch fixture, the temps are 82f and an 80f for the basking spots, then middle is like 75, and bottom is 70. She gets 7 medium/large crickets every other day(plus occasionally superworms, butterworms, waxworms, some veggies, painted lady butterfly, ect.). I mad a mistake on reading one of the suppliments labels but am getting the right one which should be here tomorrow I hope. I will be dusting every feeding with phos. Free calcium w/o d3, twice a month calcium w/d3, and twice a mobnth herptivite
 
And the container with a straw sticking out of it is my dripper that I made. I made a hole in the bottom of the side of the container, hot glued the straw so it stays through the hole, hot glued the end of the straw that is away from the container closed and poked like 4 needle holes in the straw so that it drips in multiple places at the same time :)
 
I know that flukers calcium... If it says WITH D3 then its the wrong kind /: its the same mistake I made and it can cause over supplementation.. You need a Calcium W/O D3... A calcium WITH D3... and the vitamin and put it on a schedule with the calcium W/O at almost every feeding... WITH D3 once to twice a month and the vitamin once a month.... Thats what the veteran posters told me :)

Lol I just edited my post about the lamp to say her diet/ suppliment stuff to clarify that I was replacing the flukers and saw your post. I hate when that happens when someone says what you are going to say right before you post it :p
 
Actually there was a thread I started tellin about how I messed up with this and. One of the members (and also I) figured the iu/kg amount comparing the flukers and repcal w/d3. Turns out that the flukers is 50,000 iu/kg andrepcal is 400,000 iu/kg for amount of d3. So hopefully it didn't do any real damage before I caught it, I still feel bad about that and there has been no ill effects from it that I can tell so I really got lucky with that
