Most frogs are tropical and don't mind temps 85F to 90F for day time.
But if you kept the the temps around 80 and the AC would dehumidify and that would help the most.

I have no idea the kind of temps in your area.
I looked at the weather in Taipei and the highs have been in the low 90's
So keeping the AC to the low 80's shouldn't cost too much.
Hi, and thanks for the input!

You're right, temps have been in the ( ... digs out calculator to convert degrees F to C and back again ... ) low 90s F, but it's a rooftop apartment and catches full sun, and so acts like a brick oven ... heats up all day and throws it back all night. Without A/C, the temperature can get up to >40C / >>100F.

But your advice is well-taken. Maybe I'll look into heat-tolerant species, and also work out exactly how much the A/C costs.
