 Considering a Anole

I’m new to the forum and was wondering if I can get some advice about caring for a anole. I haven’t gotten one yet but I would like to. I have a 10 gallon tank that was used for fish, but now it’s just sitting with nothing in it. My son has been asking for a bearded dragon but I don’t really like the way they look. I really need some advise about what I’ll need.

Look at atrax’ care sheet, anoles are wonderful, love to be handled, and IMHO teach responsibilities to children, by having to constantly mist.

I have looked at Atrax’ care sheet but I was wondering if I could use my old hood for the lights? Also, what kinds of plants would be best, real or fake. I’m so new at this but like the idea. Thanks for all the help.

You can use the old hood but just make sure you have a screen top under it. Either real or fake plants will work.

Ok, great. What would be the best brand of bulbs to buy for it.

Either a ReptiSun 5.0 or a ReptiGlo 5.0 ( fluorescent tubes).

Ok, thanks. The only things I need now are the bulbs, heat lamp, food, and everything else for the tank.
