    Default Cover in terrarium

    Do my Hyla Cinereas need more cover (in terms of plants/hiding places) in the uppermost reaches of the terrarium because they are arboreal? Or is it alright that all the leaves of the plant are lower in the terrarium (by the way that picture was taken a little while ago, so I'll try to get another picture up of what the plant looks like now)? Thank you!

    More cover and perches up high would be ideal. Mine spends 90% of its time in the top 10% of the tank. The light at the top will also give off some heat, so the more options they have to perch at different distances to it the better.

ID:	51380So here's what the tank looks like now. Should I still add more cover?

    Looking good! You still have some usable climbing space, so I would add more perches like Brian said. Sticks, fake vines, tall sturdy plants like snake plants... I saw fake mushroom ledges somewhere too...don't remember where though. I'll see what else I can find.
