:get rid of the substrate, it poses risk of impaction.
:A cage must be higher than 4 feet for an adult iguana. they are arboreal, so they need a cage that is atleast 6 feet high. They need climbing space.
:They need UV lighting for vitamin D3 synthesis.
:Calcium rich dark leafy greens are best. ie: Collard greens, mustard greens, dandelion greens (dandelion can get nasty quick, so i don't use 'em), water cress, endive, excarole, etc . Winter Squashes are great, like butternut, acorn, etc. Fruit can be given in small percentiles. there must be absolutely no animal protein in the diet. bread and rice are a very sparse treat, but i don't feed mine that at all.
:he needs a bigger cage than a 120 gallon. Any sized aquariums are just ill-suited for large arboreal lizards.
:good luck with him, he looks like a sweet boy =)
