    Hi there
    Milk frogs will need a heat bulb (Under 5o watts) and or a heat
    mat on the side of the tank, it is preferable to add small uvb lights
    to ensure a healthy frog but these are not mandatory, if you started
    to use any of these i have mentioned and they raise the temperature
    too much, i would use a dimmer on the heat mat or lights so the
    temperature is not as hot.

    Hope this helps!

    If I buy the small mat, it will raise over 27ēC :S ? I can control the vivarium three times per day as minimum, if that is the problem.
    I got a daylight neodimium bulb but it doesnt raise too much the temperature. as much 2 ēC...

    if you were to get a heat mat, i would get a larger
    size to cover most of one side of the terrarium
