That doesn't say the minimum for a lone frog. I have a spare 10 ... Or will soon. I was hoping a 12x12x18 would be good because its the only terrarium I can currently afford.

Please take a look at this article and see if you can modify your ten gallon vertically: Frog Forum - Building Dart Frog Terrariums / Tropical Terrarium Construction . If doing this, remember to increase ventilation. The only solid area needed for tree frogs is the bottom front to prevent substrate from falling out. Then keep saving your $ until can afford an ExoTerra 18x18x24 in. Sometimes can get good deals around the end of November or maybe in local Craiglist. Good luck!
Remember to take care of the enclosure and it will take care of your frog!
I had two in a mini-tall exo-terra and they both seemed comfortable and happy. Green and Gray Tree Frogs are relatively small, so one would definitely be ok in the 12x12x18 mini-tall.
I just got my boyfriends permission to get him if they decide they no longer want himI will certainly get the Mini-tall when I can. I am picking up crickets for the little man tonight.
Ok I read the care sheets and all but it does not say how often I should be feeding what. Whats the best primary diet and how often should I be substituting what?
Staple diet is crickets, and unfortunately I do not know what is a good idea for treats/alternatives. I've heard people feed nightcrawlers, dubia roaches, various kinds of worms, but I only feed crickets to my little guys. Feeding should be at least every other day, dusting with calcium+d3 supplement during these feedings, with a vitamin supplement dusting once a week (as I've recently been told again and reaffirmed for the fifth time). You can feed between days, or every day if you would prefer even, but the dustings can only be done every other day to prevent calcium overdose.
How many crickets at a time?
