You can keep feeders under control by using a plastic bin for feeding. It is larger than the typical deli cup and your cham can climb down to the rim of the box and shoot what he likes. It is sort of the middle ground between cup feeding (and the concerns about lazy tongue and boredom) and free ranging (concerns that the feeders get lost, start eating fecals, chew on the cham at night, lose their gutload). Metal mesh is safer to use on the cage top...lights can't melt it. To keep your Hibiscus happier you can use a single tube "regular" fluorescent light fixture set vertically along one side of the cage to increase the amount of direct light it gets.
