I>>I think 100w would be plenty for your setup, the uv supposedly goes over three feet away from the bulb. Actually your flourescent looks close enough to emit uv down to the plant (with the uv flourescent bulbs in it), and they are better, I think, than floods, which tend to blow out easily. then you can use a halogen spot which puts out a much more complimenting color and brings out the chams colors better. just my little opinion mind you.
>> what do yu use to control with the computer?? what software? That sounds interesting.

>>>>I have kept chameleons for a while but this will the first time working with a free range set up as well as mercury vapor bulbs. I need to know what wattage the 100 watt or 160 watt flood to use for this setup. The setup isnt complete yet Im waiting on some x10 stuff to get to me so I can automate everything with my computer. Im also building a basin so to say which drains outside.
