drop the humidity immediately! 40% is the highest they can tolerate.

9.The use of reptile special vitamins and calcium Once a month
10.Sunny position, the occasional use of UVB 5
11 without special measures insulation in Summer, winter will use the night lamp
12.The last feeding in 6.29.2012)
13.yes ,Just discharge
14.I will give you allot photos)
15.Last year I bought a frog,I don't know its actual age
16.Ten months
17.Artificial breeding
18.Often feed cricket,Occasionally fed honey insect, but no other feed.
19.The weekly cleaning
20.Each box raise two frogs
Through these photographs(first phptp),the changes of 5.11.2013 after, its belly is bigger and the four limbs disproportionately, it don't like climbing and moving but have a good appetite .
30x30x45 in cm are way too small for 2 frogs, especially if one is a female ( the bigger one I'm assuming, but i don't see it's head from a side so can't say for sure. for these two you want at least 45x45x60 cm tank. i meant at least! the bigger the better.
UVB is a must! 5.0 for smallish enclosure ( say 18x18x24 in inches or 45x45x60 in cm) for 12 hours a day! use it as a day lamp + basking spot lamp. in a hot spot temps have to be at about 91. even in sunny positions there is no enough of UVB is getting in through the glass.
didn't quite get what type of water you're using? would you please clarify.
3 walls of the enclosure have to be covered, your tank is too open.
last feeding - i hope you meant june 29 of this year, is it right?
vitamins you need to give once a week , not month, calcium every second feeding.
pictures of the frog - are these recent? i can't see what is it on it's skin? water drops?
i want you to do following first:
-cover 3 sides first, put some kind of plant on one of the sides as well
- turn on your UVB for 12 h a day
- put the bigger frog on a perch under the UVB lamp.
- take pics and post them here. i need pic of it's head sideways, pic from front so the belly and face is visible. if pics you posted are not recent, i need then pic from the top as well.
please do that and update on what is happening tomorrow and we'll go from there.
Save one animal and it doesn't change the world, but it surely changes the world for that one animal!
Thanks for your help
I'm going to customize a new rearing box 45*45*60 in cm
Can Tillandsia be used as plant it?
Whether to have UVA? Whether UVB will hurt the frog's eyes?
I use the water is pure water machine's
Yes it's water drops
last feeding it's june 29 2013
Add some new photos
Only thing can add to Lija's comments is about your water source. Still don't understand where water comes from. If not from spring; it needs to be dechlorinated. If from well, a conditioner that removes heavy metals might be needed. Also, can't use distilled or R/O water. Good luck!
Remember to take care of the enclosure and it will take care of your frog!
