    You can get some thin clear stiff plastic that you can cut with
    a pair of scissors to cover up the gap an use a pice of tape to secure it.

    How about some pictures of the setup?

    Ok, Here's a picture of the tank and the two spots that I worry she will jump out through.

    I won't say it is impossible but highly improbable that the frog would escape from those openings.
    with the current water level.

    Also with the current water level the falling water from the filter will be more than sufficient
    aeration. But live plants would be a great addition along with a background.

    Also does any of the ornaments have any jagged edges. As the frogs skin is very delicate.

    Also once you get the water cycled you can add a few Nrite snails or few mystery snails if you don't mind them having
    baby snails. Nrite snails won't breed in fresh water only brackish water.

    These guys can help keep the tank tidy.

    I wouldn't add any fish since the frog may eat them and some fish are not good for them.

    Don't for get to introduce yourself in the introductions area.
    Since this wasn't posted in the help area I think that is the reason why others here didn't chime in and give a hand.
    I just look at the new posts. And that is how I saw it.

    There are a lot of good knowledgeable people here that love keeping frogs of all kinds and can offer a lot of info.

    So welcome to the hobby and I hope to see

    I will look into getting a background and snails but I don't think I can fit any more decorations in the tank.

    I don't believe that any of the decorations have any rough edges.

    As for fish, I wasn't planning on getting any.

    Next time I'll post questions like this in more appropriate sections of the forum. It's just been awhile since I've been on frog forum.
