Size:  106.4 KB Well, this is the enclosure I came up with on such a short time frame. Hopefully it meets all of his/her requirements.

    Will never get tired of seeing waxy, as much as I love fat frogs, waxes are my favourite by far yours is so pretty, would you please take a pic of his face sideways, it seems from that angle you have a boy here.

    your tank is fine, I'd add a bit more brunches on top of different diameter, so a frog had a choice of sitting on different sized branches, it helps them to exercise their grip. Also since they almost always will sit in a highest spot, you need to make different things up there.

    You have UVB, do you?

    Oh and if you could get just one more from the same breeder you will be fine. Yes they do have a breeding season, it is a long and very particular process to get them here, especially for females.
    Save one animal and it doesn't change the world, but it surely changes the world for that one animal!

    I do have a UVB light, but I was wondering if it's strong enough. Should I have 2.0, 5.0 or 10.0? Unfortunately, the breeder I got him from is sold out.

    Sorry haven't seen it. For 12x tall tank you can use 2uvb, off bigger you need 5.
    Watch the guy, if he is happy he is gonna be bright green, if olive/dull he is unhappy.
