Fall weather is making nights rough for my frogs. Help please.

Yup ,it was cold here last night . It went down to 50. I'm lucky the room stayed at 73. Its time to take the ac out from the window. I hope you guys have extra heating pads. Also a 25 watt blue bulb is good for back up. This change will affect your frog.

I have read that using a night time bulb will help too. I have a 60 watt blue night bulb that I might start putting on for the peepers. They are just so tiny yet, that I worry about them.

what size heating pad?

A small one to keep an area warm so they can go if they are cold.

Definitely, you don't want to warm the entire tank with it so that they get overheated. They need an area they can go to cool off too.

Ok, so I bought a Red bulb for night and it is not working in my dome lightning structure. it is too late for me to go back to pet co and return it tonight. So should I leave the day bulb on overnight, or just let the temp drop overnight?
