What about a Under tank Heater (UTH)? Could help with the temp problem. Not sure if these frogs require one but since they don't burrow it could be placed on the bottom and raise the temps a little more.

Alright, I have the temporary tank all ready for our new babies:
Temp shows about 71-72, but should be warmer on the leaves close to the light. About an inch of treated water in the gray dish, half a dozen crickets in the glass bowl - which is butted up against the stick-on climbing branch on the back of the tank for easy stalking access. I stuck green posterboard to the sides and back.
Does this seem adequate for them for a week or two or would you make any changes?
Once my terrarium hood comes in I can start messing around with the big terrarium, their permanent home.![]()
They're here!!! Only 3 1/2 hours late (curse you, FedEx!).
They seem none the worse for the delay. Fingers crossed. My son will be too excited for words when he gets home from school....
PS. Just went to take a peek and one was already in the food bowl scarfing crickets!Now they are both soaking in the water dish.
They are adorable !!!!!!!!!!!!!
I can't wait to see more pics.
And names? Your son will have a ball.
