Every time we put the log back in, the oil went back on the water. I didn't think that it could be good for my frog...
A local pet store sells pre-decorated reptile & amphibian set-ups where they glue cork and other materials with silicone glue as a background. They pick cork slabs from the sales bin and do not even rinse it. In their wetter set-ups moss grows on it creating very nice and natural effects. Moss is fine with frogs and many species add gorgeous green areas to set-ups. If store is dusty (usually from bird areas) would only rinse with water and that's it!
