Wow, if you want to save some money try comparing prices with different pet stores. I am currently comparing prices between petco and petsmart. The setup sounds good.

[Chaser]

Yeah, I got a 12x12x18 setup from LLLreptile and basically everything above in the appropriate size, and the total was about $150.00 more. And I hear Josh's Frogs is a reliable merchant.
I'm very happy because I don't have a lot of "screw off" money. And This will be perfect, It looks like it will be around $400.00-425.00 Will that terrarium shipping fee, And the live plants will be about $15.00 to ship! These prices are so much more affordable!!!

And I don't live near a large pet store like that..

[FrogNoobie659]

Yeah I know, It says that you live in Nebraska. One of my best friends live there and he finds a lot of toads in his backyard. He lives in Sidney, NE. I don't know if that is near you or not. He goes to a petco but it takes like 15 minutes to get there from his house.

I live to the east, in Norfolk. I think there is a Petsmart or a Petco somewhere in Omaha.. But yeah.

um i think you are buying alot of stuff you don't need

You are buying plantation soil and abg mix. Pick one don't need both. I personnally use ABG from Josh's and plants love it

You are buying fake plants and live plants. Ditch the fake plants and use live.

What do you plan to use for humidity? With live plants in the viv i suggest a misting system. And if you use a misting system be careful with that exo terra thermo/hygrometer, if you live it in the viv all the time it will eventually start giving false readings and you'll have to take it out and let it dry out. It's best used to stick in periodically to get a reading then take it out

The soil and fake plants come with the kit, I didn't plan on buying them but i could always use them for other frogs, and i have a mister already, sorry for not clearing that up. Its just basically an upgrade from my Red eye.
