Panther_Dude,

Actually, clear feed cups are bad. They increase the chance of the chameleon attempting to shoot their tongue through the clear sides. Chameleons are very good about judging distances and put a very specific amount of force into their tongue projection. By suddenly hitting a barrier with too much force, it can potentially damage the tongue muscles. Bad news.
