don't forget that you are his new environment too. don't leave him alone too much. try holding it in your lap late in the evening while he's tired if at all possible. that lighting sounds more than adequate. you gotta remember, iguanas live in rain forests and tropical areas. they like to be warm and they like UVB but they spend most of their time under trees and don't get tons of direct sun light during the day so make sure it has warm and cool spot to hide in shade if it needs to. it knows way more about it's needs than you do so let it have choices so it can self adjust.
