I am quite sure that the frog is Hyperolius mariae. It is native to the Eastern Usambara Mountains of Tanzania and the island of Zanzibar. One of the problems with reed frogs is that there are so many color morphs within the same species that it is difficult to make a positive ID Some scientists give this species the name Hyperolius viridiflavus mariae. If that isn't complicated enough, it is part of the Hyperolius marmoratus complex (marbled or painted reed frogs), so captive care would be similar. Good luck with your frogs

That's one nifty looking frog.

I agree that it is Mary's reed frog, Hyperolius mariae.
