Agalychnis annae group

[Bellerophon]

Thanks, they're from Todd and Christina. I'm sure they still have many available. Agalychnis annae, Blue Sided Treefrog - Dendroboard

As far as their husbandry it seems to be pretty close to callidryas only slightly cooler. The tank I have them in now is running a little warmer than I'd like but with a few tweaks I should be able to get it down to a low 70's average. The drops in humidity are caused by the fans turning on for 5 minutes.



The tank is a 54 gallon corner bow front with a custom made hood. currently I have seven juvenile annae in there. I wanted to create a tank that would serve both as a display viv and a functioning rain chamber.



This is the rain reservoir/drip panel that a small pump in the water section fills. Its set so the drip rate is about the same as the fill rate. I wanted to avoid the top heavy look of most light hoods so I designed the entire rain system to fit down within the 3/8" lip around the top of the tank.






In order to keep the heavy rains from soaking the substrate the floor was separated into the front land area and rear water area. The rain falls just behind the land. I'll need to get a current planted picture up since I just added a few plants again tonight.


To offset the soaking rain the hood has also been equipped with two 80mm fans on either side of the front access panel. These draw air across the front glass to clear any condensation and also immediately dry off the plants so they don't rot.

Very impressive. I am green with envy and I'm sure Kurt is too.

[Mike]

Tempted to get some myself..

[Kurt]

Green is not even the word for it. I looked at the Dendroboard ad and they are more than I can pay at the moment. Maybe you will get some breeding and there will be more for sale, hopefully lowering the price with every successful clutch.

I just love those pictures. Especially the third one. You should put it in the photo of the month contest.

[Bellerophon]

Planted shot from this morning. Obviously still has a lot of growing in to do.

[Kurt]

Very nice.

[John]

Yes, very nice Lee. What are the plant species in that last photo?
