I didn't say anything because I didn't want to without being positive. I do remember reading a bit about chameleons though, and they get quite large and are difficult to keep.

And a 20 gallon is usually considered the minimum for a full-grown crestie.

It would need to be altered to keep the substrate and the humidity in. Not saying it can't be done. Just seems like something else would be easier.

They also sell conversion kits for regular tanks like that to make them arboreal and allow the substrate to be kept in.

The OP said they were willing to upgrade. There really isn't anything easier to keep than a rhac. The 15 as it is would be fine planted. Upgrade when needed.
