To do this would need to know what room temperature is like at enclosures location (both Summer and Winter) and if you plan to keep live plants or not.

and what is a 25W UVB CFL? A lamp that is rated at 25 watts and produces ultraviolet light with a compact fluorescent light design. Exo Terra : Lighting.

and a ceramic heat element? A ceramic plate with electrical wiring embedded on it and a lamp bulb base used for heating only since it emits no light. Higher wattage units have a side effect of drying the air (heat does that). Zoo Med Ceramic Heat Element . Ceramic heat elements must point downwards and go into light domes such as these one: http://www.flukerfarms.com/repta-cla...bleswitch.aspx . I like the Fluker's because it comes with a built in dimmer.

and a fecal? does tht involve a vet? none of the vets around here do reptiles or frogs I wonder if the reptile store guy would be able to do it?
A fecal is a poop analysis done to determine presence of parasites in their digestive system (worms, protozoan, etc.). It does not matter if vet does frogs or not; his lab technician should be able to conduct analysis and provide results. They normally cost around $30 - $35. Store employees don't do them; you need a lab and knowledge of parasite presence (eggs, reproductive segments, etc.).

is there a moderator I could message? I'm having a problem with my account! Not a Mod; but forum was reacting slow earlier today.
Hope this helps and sorry for confusing you .
