I am happy to report my guys seem much happier now that they are in their new setup. I'm still working on making it more anole friendly. The little guy Kermit, turned green almost immediately after placing him in the new setup.

I ended up using a large plastic cup to herd them one at a time into the side of the aquarium and into the cup then with cardboard over the cup moved them from one tank to the other. I have been misting their plants and other things about 3 times each day. I need to get a better light, as I noticed Ken picked up an incadescent one and not a UV light Now that they are in a taller aquarium it is not nearly as hot, now it's around 80-85 so they should be much happier.

We ran out for crickets and few other things. When I got home both Kermit and Oscar were nice and green. Yeah. Oscar, the larger of the two, turned brown shortly after seeing us but Kermit stayed green and chased a few crickets before climbing to the top of his branch, getting as flat as he could, turn brown, and go to sleep.

Thanks guys and gals, I'll get pics on here as soon as I can get some good ones.

i've had my 2 anoles for some time now and the are very rowdy little things. and a 20 gallon tank is perfect for 2 little anoles. of course you will want to put some branches in there for them to climb on(not sprayed with chemicals) and they also seem to enjoy ferns and other potted plants in thier cage. they also love wax worms in addition to crickets(of course) and if you let the wax worms pupate and place them in the enclosier they relish the moths.
P.S. my male anoles name is also kermit and his mates name is skwirl!
