    Well, if it's not high enough for red eyes, then it's not high enough for either milk frogs or mossy frogs. They're all tree-dwelling frogs as you know. Mossy are no doubt the largest of these frogs, so if you're short on space I would advice against mossys. They also need a real water part (preferably with moving water) which takes up even more space.

    Lastly, I have to say that I'm not very fund of the idea "I have a spare tank, what can I put in it". Decide what pet you really want, then get an appropriate tank for it, not the other way around.

    Very, very true !
    What really bugs me - when you turn these tanks vertically- you end up with a glass top, just inviting a ventilation problem and no slot for electrical cords!

    My red eye enclosure in my basement. I live on the north shore of Long Island, NY . I have to run little fan over my enclosure in the summer because of too high a humidity level.
    I set it on a timer to come on and off on the humid days. ( works very well though)

    I should just recycle the other 2 and get another nice tall exo-terra like I have for the red eyes.
    I have this vision of creating a great carved tree truck with holes for Amazons.

    Got to say, these frogs are incredibly easy to care for. I thought red-eyes was really easy, but the corticales makes even the red eyes seem like high maintenance!
    Time to update with some freshly taken pictures!
















    Yeah, not entirely sure what happened here...
