    Thank you very much.

    Truthfully, as I said these frogs are for my daughter, but I am getting excited to get them!

    Can anyone answer the couple questions I asked?

    Also if I built a platform out of river rocks or something similar, how would I incorporate substrate for the plants? Is there a type of rock I could use that would wick some moisture up from the water to the substrate?

    After doing some research I am considering using a method of hydroponic gardening. It is called the wick system. This would mean the growing substrate would be completely separated from the tank water. A few strands of nylon rope or candle wick would then be buried in the substrate and extended into the water column. Water would then be wicked into the substrate as the plants need it. Supposedly this is an easy method to obtain water, and is impossible to over water. I am thinking of a bark/moss substrate if I used this method...
