Try attaching a small container higher up in the tank near its basking area. My anoles dislike feeding on the bottom unless they are very hungry.



Every green I've ever owned prefer mealworms to crickets, though I rarely feed mealworms as they are not particularly great for them...certainly shouldn't be used as a staple (too much chitin).



You might try waxworms as a treat. Waxworms that escape will turn into small moths that your anole will quickly consume, as opposed to morphing into a nasty, little unpalatable beetle, as mealworms do.
