weeping fig is really nice and will grow with the chams fairly well.. think mine are now too large for one however.
that house of plants place are really good if you phone them, they sorted me out with small plants and things suitable for certain conditions including stuff that will survive with my geckos!
sounds like lee is going to sort out those for you, but I would have a look at a few other bits and peices.. orchids are cheap and look great and cheese plant seems to be a new favourite with my girls (they can slip around a bit on it when little though!) |

is weeping fig the same as brown turkey?  they've got too many names! house of plants are all about £50 plus which is a lot for plants as nice as they are! if i phone will it be cheeper? i'm yet to find any pothos anywhere except artificial. read in some other threads you have 2 chams in same viv, hows that goin for you? i did plan to do the same but was advised against it. they still happy? about how old are they? yeah i think i'll get a swiss cheese, heard all good things about them and they'll grow into them i'm sure!

they reduced all the prices loads when I told them what I needed, the plants on the site are grown on but smaller ones cost less, but they dont advertise these.
think I got two dragon plant tops (about 30 cm high), two cheese plants and some bits for my geckos for about £30 - 40
no idea what a turkey plant is weeping fig is simply called weeping fig from what I know (or maybe fiscus somethingorother) |

just looked at the wood, some of the textured stuff is broken (revealing an inner smooth piece), is this normal or should it be replaced? the other vines are fine though
