How Many Chameleons can you house in one tank?

ZERO! Chameleons should not be housed in a tank. Most chameleon species should not be kept in groups so if you get a screen cage you can keep one chameleon per cage. As a general rule buy the largest screen cage possible for your Chameleon as they prefer a lot of room with lots of real plants.

You really got to get a few books on chameleons, and read more stuff online. Start with this...

As for your original question, after 3 months, no more than ONE

Stick around and keep asking questions
