any source for the info, that they live in swampy areas?
I would keep them not the whole year in a Paludarium. Most of the year in a very well ventilated tank on the dry side and only during the breeding season in a "swampy like" tank like the above one.
Citation from "A Fieldguide to the Amphibians and Reptiles of Madagasgar" by F. Glaw & M. Vences:
"...Habitat: Females were found during the day on the sun-exposed leaves of Pandanus and other plants. At Ranomafana the species was only observed in August...."
A couple of years ago I have been in Madagascar and found Heterixalus cf. betsileo sitting on leafs in the full sun. => very dry during the day.
just my two cents...
