Its no where near as nice as some of the others I have seen on here but its a start. Please give me suggestions on how to make it better for my little guys. Also I need to name them so I would like suggestions there as well. Can you guys also look at the spots on the one, I am not sure if its just color spots or if there is something wrong with it. The spots were not there yesterday but also yesterday one was brown and one was green, this morning they were both brown, and now they are both brownish/green. LOL The spots are smooth and not raised at all if that helps. Is there some where on here that I can find information on how to tell if they are sick?

Try live plants. I use pothos for all of my enclosures along with a few others.
I love those spots on the frog. its natural for them to have those. nothing to worry about![]()
I concur with pothos. Everything looks great, but I would probably ditch the Spanish moss. I would be worried about your frog accidentally swallowing it.
Thanks guys especially for checking on the spots I was worried. I plan on replacing the fake plants with real ones ASAP. I am going to do a false bottom and plant them in the substrate. Besides the pothos what else would you suggest? Can I just get them at lowes or Home Depot?
Heres my baby whites tree frog enclosure
Im using a pothos ,umbrella plant, heart leaf plant and some moss i collected from out side. In my adults enclosure im using pothos,heart leaf plants and codiaeum variegatum.
Very nice.
Those spots are so cute. Mine both have some spotting too. Before you do the false bottom you should look into turning that tank into a vertical tank. I believe there are kits sold to convert? Essentially in the end the tank would look similar to a tall exo-terra. There would be more climbing space and the false bottom wouldn't take up as much vertical space. You would need a temp home for you frogs when doing this though (like a hospital or quarantine tank). Part of the fun of having frogs is being able to craft such awesome enclosures, like Poison's.
Ok I'm at lowes looking at the plant and can not find any with the name you mentioned. The ones I saw that I liked were purple waffle, hypoestes, aphelandra squarrosa will these work? I did find one bromeliads that I liked as well.
ETA I also liked sansevieria and pachira money tree.
Prayer plants (arrowleaf, I think) have done well in my tanks. And if you pick up one of those hollow rocks for snakes/geckos from a petstore it makes a great place for your frogs to hide. Whites like to tuck themselves away to sleep, and if you provide them with a space like that it will be easy to locate them and removed them when you have to. I had a fish tank tree once for climbing on that was hollow, and they would climb up into the top and there was no getting them out of that tiny space if I had to clean the tank! Rock works well, though. Peat moss makes a good substaight and holds a lot of moisture. Just don't use anything like Miracle Grow that has fertilizers in it.
Thank you.
