If you want to keep a combo of lizards then chameleons are NOT the way to go. There are very few lizards that can be kept together. Some frogs and geckos of the same kind can be kept together but once you start mixing you are asking for trouble. Cresties can be kept in pairs or trios and they can be really interesting. The size cage you described would be good for a cham but if it's your first one , PLEASE do alot of research before you get one. They are harder to take care of than most other lizards. The water fall in the bottom is a big waste of money (IMOA). It will require being taken out everyday and cleaned because the water will make a mess on the bottom of the cage and the crickets will drown in it. This will cause harmfull bacteria to grow if not cleaned.

I am in no way an expert I am just offering my opinion and you can choose whether to take it or not.
