Tree frogs and wood lice vs. springtails

It's save as can be,
the only frog they will eat.... is a dead frog

If you like i can take a picture of my substrate in the frog tanks,
they are all filled with springtails and woodlice.
They do a pretty good job cleaning the waste and other organic material from the bottom of the tank.

ok cool thanks did you just buy a concentrated container of both and just add them to the tank or did you set-up other containers to grow them first. I have my frogs in a 30 gallon vertical tank set up with a small pond so there is only a small land area. Would they still be able to live there. I only plan on using one kind just to keep my tank free of unwanted stuff.

I just put in a couple of them, they multiply over time.
Since they probably won't be eaten, no need to put in that many.

It's no problem you have a large portion of water.
Woodlice can actually breed under water since the have *gills?* just like fish (not sure if i got it right in English )
Springtails will also be able to thrive just fine.

Sweet thanks for the info. and no worries couldn't even tell English is your 2nd language everything was spot on.

Thanks again. I've had my tank set up for a month and I have mold growing which I researched and is fine just want the bugs to keep if from getting to moldy

That is exactly what they like best

And thanks on the compliment, trying to improve my English by daily visiting frogforum.
Just love the atmosphere around here

lol thadmy u read my thoughts. was going to ask about these myself for Red-Eyed Leaf Frog's. How good are they for feeding Red-Eyed Leaf Frog's? or would crickets be best? i like em to help break down the dead stuff to.

My red eyes try them out on time to time base, the woodlice that is.
I see them eating the white ones as they crawl up the wood now and then.

My offspring loved to jump on them when they crawled up on the leaflitter as well.
It's a great foodsource, but not the daily thing for an adult red eyed tree frog.
It's always best to try and give them a wide variaty of food items.
Not sure what is readily available around you, but i feed them mainly crickets and for a change i use waxworms and their moths, small grasshoppers, butterworms, silkworms and small roaches now and then.
This will be a better diet then only providing one food item all the time, just as it would be best for humans to eat varied.

Yeah I plan on getting clowns and I wanted them just to keep the tank clean. I figure if the frogs eat them time to time great. I had planned on feeding them a staple of FF and crickets.
