    Default 3M double sided tape

    Thinking outside the box. Could you use double sided tape to attach a piece of cork back to the glass to have a floating plant??

    I don't see why not.

    Since I am a engineer I would have maybe hot glued the cork to a plastic coated magnet so I could move it around or remove it when I wanted to without
    disturbing the plant.
    Just don't let children play with them they are really strong and can be swallowed not good.

    These magnets are great.

    The tape wouldn't leech any chemicals or lose its adhesion being in a high humidity environment??

    Probably yes to both. Myself would either follow Louis magnet idea or use aquarium safe silicone glue. Good luck !
    Remember to take care of the enclosure and it will take care of your frog !​

    I use green wire, furniture brad & suction. Even the weight for my big ol' fat WTF doesn't pull it down.

    Just make a loop and stick a brad (heavy thumbtack) through it. Just make sure the brad doesn't come through the other side.
