Where do you get your enclosures?

I’m looking for a 24x24x48 enclosure but all I can find are ones with mesh for chameleons or they’re fully pvc and black on all sides which I think is ugly. Where do yall find your fully glass enclosures at this size??? Preferably somewhere I can buy on payments as I’ve seen these in the $300-500 range 🫩

What is this black around her face?

Hey all I recently noticed this black color on the outlines of my baby girl’s face. It’s been there a week now idk if it’s burns or her making that color but it’s worrying me 😔 She is otherwise normal, she is active and eats and drinks like normal, the only other concerning thing is when I’ve taken her out to hang out in this plant area (all chameleon safe and pesticide free) there’s been two instances where I’ve seen her hanging out and gaping so now I’m getting nervous of a respiratory infection?

In her enclosure i have misters going off every 6 hours, she is in an enclosure with the recommended dimensions for an adult (just can’t remember what the numbers are so that’s how i’m describing it lol), her basking spot reaches 85-90F and I have the correct UV horizontal light on from about 5am-6pm. On paper she should be fine but of course it doesn’t always work out that way so I guess I’m just wondering if anyone has seen this pattern before or if it’s normal or if anyone has any advice as far as the respiratory thing. When I saw her gaping I put her back in her enclosure and she hasn’t done it since so I was thinking maybe she just got too hot or stressed where she was ? But now i’m stressed so yeah any comments are welcome anyway word vomit over okay thanks 😭🫶

So this happened today

So this is my black sweet potato vine that I got about a month ago. I have primarily kept it at a south facing window however my chameleon decided she wanted to start chomping on it (guess she got tired of pothos taste) and seeing as they’re not great for her, I moved it to a north facing windowsill this past week. I watered this plant literally Monday and checked it, everything was fine (that I could see). I checked on it everyday because Inlmow moving locations is stressful and it looked like it was having a freakin blast on this windowsill, plenty of sunshine and all. and this is what I came home to today.

I’m devastated. It looked like it was doing so well and now it’s clearly declining quickly with this outbreak. I can be glad it was on a window sill with only one other plant so whatever this is hopefully didn’t have time to spread but I’ve also been dealing with a horrific fungus gnat infestation that seems to just be cycling through my plants for the last 2-3 months.

I feel so hopeless. My monstera that i’ve had for three years now has little white bugs and black waxy looking balls on the leaves so clearly there’s something going on there too. We don’t leave the doors open, we live in the desert. I have a chameleon so inside temp stays consistent at 78 I’m just so confused on how this happened and why it doesn’t seem to stop. I love all my plants so much. I have upwards of 50 but now more than half have infestations and need to be quarantined outside. But it’s 104 today so now i have to battle whatever is eating my poor plant babies and keep them from dying in the heat. I just don’t know what to do.
