Warmer temps in the day are very important for proper digestion and should increase appetite, not decrease it.
    I read that 80-85 was too warm for adults... but it does make sence considering that they are tropical frogs. I keep my baby at 82 in the day, and 78 at night.

    That's good for babies and juvies. Remember that heat helps them digest and metabolize their food. It does get a lot hotter than high 70s in tropical climates even higher than high 80s, but that is why frogs hide during the day and come out at night. Or stay in water during the day so the sun doesn't dry them out.
