My new green anole is turning brown. What heat and UVB do I need?

Question

My husband gave me a new green anole, came with a small 9x6x6.5 critter tote, bedding, but it's the first nite, what do I do for the next day as heating source Bc I don't have a uvb light, also what do I need to do for the nite? He seems to be turning brown quickly, he keeps trying to climb out

Ideally, a 10 gallon tank is the smallest enclosure that should be used for one anole. You will need a UVB light source as well as a heat lamp. The brown color is likely due to stress.
