How often do you change a veiled chamleons habitat?

I have a 2 month old chameleon and i am not to sure on when to clean his tank. He is in the same aquatank that he was in when i bought him from the men. There is plants and dirt on the bottom. I feed him crickets. I read that it should be changed like 3 times a week. I have only been changing it once a week.
Answers:
A once a week spot cleaning is usually fine for one cham. You get into the deep clean just once a month. This reduces stress on your cham and still allows for a healthy habitat.:-)

There are other things you can feed him, too. Superworms, butterworms, silkworms, and even pinky mice when he gets full-grown. You don't have to feed live. You can purchase frozen ones online. Just thaw and feed.

Make sure you have a good UVB source and good temps.
YOU SHOULD CLEAN DAILY. IT HELPS KEEP BACTERIA OUT AND THAT WILL KEEP THEM FROM GETTING SICK AND DIEING.
