sick White's tree frog

[Charlotte Benedict]

Alright, I have cleaned EVERYTHING, given the people who sent me a sick frog a piece of my mind, and got Ebb a new friend. Thank you so much for all of your help! And thanks for the comment about my setup... I was worried as a first time frog owner that I was going overboard!

So I got Ebb a new friend, a slightly bigger juvenile that I named Jupiter (naming another frog Flow seemed too much of an impersonal, replacement thing). Right after I put Jupiter in, Ebb started to lighten up a little bit, and eventually I walked in and the two were scrunched up right beside each other! I think you were right about Ebb being lonely. I can't wait until mine get to be a couple inches long! I am worried though because Ebb is a dark blue... not a droopy, melancholy brown, so it might just be the conditions. How high is the humidity and the temp. in yours? My temp. is 85, that is as low as I can get it, and the humidity is about 65%. And by the way, thank you so much for helping me with the solution for cleaning the tank and diagnosing Flow. It really helped.

id reccomend adding some more foliage such as a bromeliad or pothos i added a few and i noticed within 15 min both whites were green and that night the male(jet) was calling and my humidity is about 60% but i bought a zoo med reptifogger and it should be here soon and my temp is at about 83

I have wanted to get some more plants... are yours real? The fake ones at petsmart looked awful, and I haven't been able to find plants that aren't toxic. They look great. I just added the Zoo Med Repti Fogger to my terrarium and it works great, I have to keep it on a low setting! It brings the temp up slightly... but that is because it is blowing steam. I didn't know that White's could change color based on their surroundings... thanks for the advice!

I have 2 fake plants in there one is hanging and ive noticed they love to lay on the leaves that hold water in

Nothing better than a bromeliad for your Whites. They love to sleep down in the leaves and the plant holds moisture to help with humidity. Bromeliads are self sufficient. They hold their own water, do not need soil to grow and can be cut back as needed to fit a tank.

If you plant a Bromeliad, have good drainage so the base doesn't rot.

Check out my photo albums for some pics of some of the Broms i have or had.

yeah i have mesh screen under substrate then hydroballs just for the plants plus it holds a lot of humidity it seems like and i got 3 real plants for less than 10 bucks from walmart cant beat that
