Unfortunately I am unsure if him turning green after the light are out symbolizes anything good or bad. In my experience, when an anole stays dark most of the time and appears nearly black it means it is passing away soon. You may get lucky in that I could possibly be wrong but I have been maintaining Green and Brown Anoles on and off for the better part of the past 10 years and normally when one presents a constant dark color its not good. What are the temps under the basking light? I did not think about this when I replied at the wee hours of this morning but it is possible your basking light is not providing enough warmth, however as I said with that, the UV light and the UTH there should be no concern about under heat, as I said in my last post you are in danger of over heating them.
