Whats up with this pothos plant?

[Wildwilson]

Hey everyone. So i have been running the lights in my enclosure during the day for the last 2 days so i can test all my temps. Earlier today i noticed some leaves on my pothos plant have black spots on them. When i look it up i can find similar situations and it says its either a burn or a fungus. What do you guys think???

It looks like a fungus to me. When the leaves burn they tend to turn yellowish, not dark like that. I'd remove those infected leaves and keep a close eye on the rest of them over the next couple of weeks.

Thanks for the reply. Is it still safe for a cham to be around it?

I think it will be safe as long as you remove the infected or dead leaves until no carnage remains, and then keep a close eye on the plant while in the chameleon enclosure. If anything else happens that you cannot contain, then I think you should replace the infected pothos with a clean, fungus-free pothos. Does your chameleon actually eat the leaves?

I actually dont have one at the moment. Ive been looking for someone to get one from but there isnt a lot available right now, it would seem. I just trimmed off all the infected leaves. Going to also put a fan in the room with the enclosure because i read that poor air flow can cause this fungus.
