Nice to see another person getting into tree frogs!! I have my indonesian White's in a zoo med naturalistic terrarium 18x18x24. I have fake exo-terra plants on the walls with a medium exo-terra vine, a medium half log hide, hens and chicks succulants in the bottom, tropical plants on the sides, and of course a Water dish I will post a pic when i can>>>

I'm going with a 29 gallon. I want it to be as naturalistic as possible, but functional at the same time. I'm getting my plant list in order along with the rest of my supplies. Plan to have some frogs in the tank in a few weeks.

yeah, at this point most WTF's keepers would think "what a terrible cage". But i got some money so im working on a better cage. But, instead of a 29 gallon you should get and arboreal cage since they are tree frogs. My tropical plants and hens and chicks igot at my local green house after making sure they were safe and being sure that they were pesticide, and fertilizer free. Just out of curiosity, where will you be getting your frogs?

[AandKReptiles]

It was going to be converted to a 29 vert. That or I'm going to go with a screen cage. I plan on getting mine from Josh's frogs.

i would make the 29 vert, i once did so with a 20g. I would not use a screen cage since they can't climb it.

[AandKReptiles]

Well its the 29 or a 18x18x24 zoomed

Nice and glad to hear.

As for fake plants, nothing wrong with fake, just easier to keep humidity with live plants.
I believe Exo-Terra is making some pretty realistic Bromeliads for the frogs now. The ones I saw in a show video on youtube were pretty cool looking. I believe Black Jungle had some on hand when I was there this past weekend but didn't really look closely at them.

I saw some of the Exo-Terra broms at the store recently, they are pretty comparable to real broms in my opinion.

[treefrogsrules]

well, now he actually does have a live tropical plant. he went through cage changes and i bought a tropical plants at petco right before i bought casper

[LilyPad]

However, they are pretty much as expensive (or more so) than buying a live one.
