    i agree i wouldn't put a bulb inside the viv either, but if you must you need to cage the bulb in somehow, and by the looks of that bulb it won't be easy as thats some high wattage and will get hot and anything around to cage the bulb would as well. If it were me i wouldn't use it at all, and definitely not inside the tank. if you want something moon light or night light you can buy a simple LED light stick

    i dont have any experience with that type of frog but you can add a heat mat to the side of the tank to raise the temp. Put it on a thermostat and you good to go

    Here's the care sheet for White's. Frog Forum - White's Tree Frog Care - Litoria caerulea
    That bulb's wattage is much too high. I wouldn't go any higher than 50 watts even with external bulbs. As every e has said. A bulb inside the enclosure with the frogs is an accident waiting to happen.

    with a bulb inside like that you'd probably be able to dine on frogs legs!
