Thanks for the clarification! The size of the Reptarium is still an issue. Not really large enough for even one adult jax, no way could they share it for the same reasons listed above. It's just too small IMHO. Larger cages offer a gradient of temp and humidity, and will accommodate larger bushy plants for drinking, climbing, hunting, and hiding. Larger cages end up being easier to manage as you can do more with them and the cham can move around more naturally. If you have trouble finding your cham in the cage it's about right. Now a 90 or 120 gal Reptarium would be great for 1 jax! You could put 2 side by side with a visual barrier between. Another thing to consider about the Reptariums...the zippers tend to fray and jam if they are used long term. You'll be opening the cage basically every day to clean, feed, etc. and this will eventually wear them out. Zoophobas and sometimes a large crix will chew through the mesh. Most of us use Reptariums as temporary housing (for juveniles or isolation, or for basking sessions outdoors).
