    Hi guys!

    No worries in the comments. I am looking for good opinions as to what is best for my babies along with the style I like.

    No one has hurt my feelings . It seems to be more frustrating for you guys, than myself.

    The frogs, 2 adult, 1 juvenile, are not in the viv yet. I am waiting to try and perfect it before they move in .

    The dimensions are 48 inches long, 13 inches wide, 20 inches high. It is a 55 gallon tank.

    I can add more vine to the top if needed. The plants are fairly snug together, so prefer not to add more unless you think best.

    I started to make a foam background with pots for plants to hang down. It looked cluttered. I may be able to run a strip along the top back and do so. Yet, I was hoping to not. I think I'd prefer running more vine and adding more crawling plants.

    Again, no worries. I have not been offended. I was looking for guidance. This is my first live vivarium.

    Although, I think it has turned out pretty good so far.

    Oh ... and I could not currently purchase the 125 gallon I previously wanted. Maybe another time. I make good money, but financially I have put over $500 into the tank, stand, cover, light, etc. My husb would shoot me if I came home with a $1000+ set-up for my frogs .

    Thanks again!

    Waiting to hear some advice .....

    If you can, you should, if you ask me. The more the better with these frogs, basically. Perhaps more plants to connect the to sides together as well, as you have plants to the left and right, but not so much in the middle.
