I have been having a problem for about two day. The problem is humidity is dropping to abut 40 so I have been misting then putting plastic wrap over less than half of the top of my tank to keep the humidity is this ok for my frogs?
Sure you can use plastic wrap to help. Just don't get it to close to a light bulb.
Post a pic of the tank and someone might see a solution for fixing your humidity issues. Include what lighting or heat sources you are using also.
I'm using one of those reptile heat pads that you stick under the tank it keeps the temp at about 75 and I'm not using any lighting right now? I'm using Eco dirt for substraight and there are two fake plants in the tank as well.
no moss?
Yes one large piece in the corner of the tank it stays fairly wet.
Is the soil pretty dry? You want to keep it somewhat moist. Your heat pad will dry the soil out pretty quickly too.
Cover some of the top, but not all since your tree frogs should have some air circulation. A layer of sphagnum moss under the soil (you can separate with window screen material) will hold a lot of moisture also.
What are your room temperatures at night and during the day? Sometimes using a light bulb will be better than using the UTH pad since the UTH is heating the soil, drying it out, and then getting some heat to the tank where your tree frogs are.
