Re: sick White's tree frog
Have you cleaned the tank since the first died? I would clean it with a 10% bleach solution (9 parts water to 1 part bleach) then rinse it REALLY well with declorinated water (the declorinator helps neutralize any remaining bleach residue). If you have drift wood (sorry, i cant tell whats real wood and whats fake XD) and it was in there when Flow was in there might be best to toss it. Some say you can clean it with the same bleach solution then soak it in declorinated water but in my opinion wood soaks up water then releases it slowly and can still have some residual bleach in it which can be very harmful to your frogs. Anything fake or stone can be cleaned the same way the tank is (let fabric plants soak in the declorinated water for a good 12-24 hours, at least overnight, to make sure the bleach is all out).
I think the set up is awesome! I think Ebb may have dodged a bullet if hes eating and acting normal now. You are finding poop right? I'd keep a close eye on him but I think the stress of loosing his tank mate and probably being shuffled around caused him to not want to eat. There usually bottomless pits.If he again stops eating and becomes lethargic then a call to a herp vet would be a good idea but he looks pretty good to me.
And omgosh! I never realized that baby whites could be so itty bitty! I got my girl in February (or there abouts) and she was already a good inch and a half long and filled my hand. Yours is so cute and tiny! I dont have any info on raising baby whites but I'd assume if you follow the care guide at the top of the forum then your in good shape.
