Sorry to jump in but was wondering this myself, just starting to make my viv for a BD and have been meaning to ask if/what live plants you can add? Presuming the BD can make the most of this then?

you need to be careful with real plants as some are not safe and can make your reptile ill,

and humidity can be a problem, if your rep has a high humidity then some live plants with moist soil are great at keeping this level accurate, but others that need a low humidity, live plants can be a problem, and fake plastic plants are the second best solution

well i think your options are the drippers, or misting everyday, just trying to find other threads on it but not having much look

i'll keep looking

If you're anoles require around 22C and 70% humidity you should be able to follow the basic principles dartfrog keepers use to set up a natural viv. I don't know a lot about anoles however, but if you're interested take a look at Dendroworld • Index page - you will need to register to access a larger selection of boards on the forum. Lots of discussion on plants, bioactive substrate, etc.. There are also threads on this forum regards similar setups for some species of gecko and pygmy chameleons. Just make sure the animals environmental requirements are the same as those of the plant otherwise the plants are likely to die.

Don't know much, but try in keep stuff in pots and containers beneath the substrate as the the roots will grow in and be a nightmare for cleaning.


... i think lol
