Exo Terra for Dumpy? and question about feeding/suplements

[XDragonFrogX]

Would a 12x12x18 exo terra be ok for 1 dumpy tree frog?

How ofter should i feen an adult? how many crickets? and how often should I dust the crickets? I have calcium with d3 and some multivitamins

anyone?

Some will disagree with that size, however I do not. I kept an adult male nearly the size of my hand in a ten gallon with pothos ivy and a branch for quite some time. It will all depend on how you set it up and so on. You will want vertical climbing area such as a long driftwood or cork tube and some ivy or other viv plant. I fed mine a few times a week on large crickets and you should dust every other feeding or so. I kept a medium sized water dish inside also for him to have a soak once in a while and misted every couple of days as well.

Hope this helps!

It helps allot! Thanks! So when should i dust with calcium and when should i dust with multi vitamins? I have a jar of calcium and a jar of multi vitamins

Also, the 12x12x18 is just temporary until i can get a 18x18x24

Happy to hear you're going bigger for the WTF, plus you could put a second one in also. A frog can survive in a small tank, but are they thriving & happy, big difference. I have three in the Exo Terra 36 x 36 x 18 and they use every bit of space.

Yeah I never planned to use the 12x12x18 as a forever setup. I found a brand new one for 25 bucks so I got it until I get the money for the bigger exo terra. And I planned to get a 2nd blue dumpy as well. Im trying to find a female blue whites tree frog next

Gail is 100% right. They will use all the space they are allotted. Gail gives them EXTRA space which is a perfect amount to give them that "FREEDOM" walk haha. You will be ok with the next size down 18x18x24.

[XDragonFrogX]

Well I actually found a 18x18x24 zoomed with a bunch of fake plants, a real plant, a large water dish for $100 Hes getting a upgrade sooner then I thought haha. And I have the 12x12x18 as a quaraentine tank when im able to get my 2nd dumpy!

Alternate the dusting. So that you go like calcium this feeding, vitamins next feeding then no dusting the next feeding.

Ok thanks for the help!
