Hi Ashleyacuna,
How are you? Welcome to the forum.
Lets get you headed in the right direction for your new Whites Tree Frog.
Here is a care sheet:

You'll need to get your temps up a bit. Keep his tank's ambient daytime heat at 78 to 80'F with a corner basking area of 85'F. It can drop to 75-76'F at night.
The warmer temps help to increase their metabolism, helping to digest better, which will also increase their appetite.
Humidity should be 60-80%. Too low can cause dehydration. Too high can cause respiratory infections. Mist the tank 2x/day minimal to keep proper humidify range. You can mist with distilled water to avoid calcium deposits on your glass if you'd like.
Soaking water and moistening of substrate... Use only dechlorinated water. Change his soaking water daily.
Substrate... Avoid loose moss or gravel. They can be aggressive eaters and may dart at their food quickly, and may accidentally ingest the rocks or moss, which both cause severe impaction of the intestines. It's best to avoid them.
Habitat... They need a tank of at least 18" tall to be happy. They live in the trees in the wild. He would love some nice safe, tall climbing branches and smooth, sturdy leaves for perching and sleeping on or under. Be sure to prepare any live wood or plants properly before adding them to the tank.
Stress... Minimize his stress. Keep him in a quiet, low-traffic area, minimize handling, and cover the back and 2 sides of his enclosure to help him feel safe/secure.
Food... His food should be no larger than the distance between his eyes for ease of swallowing and to avoid impaction. The glass bowl trick works great. He'll learn to eat from the bowl and will likely wait at the bowl for dinner. Feed at night just before bed time. Clean out the cricket bowl daily when he's asleep with very hot water and remove and feed (gut-load with healthy foods) the crickets. I am not a fan of mealworms or any insects that have chitin in their shells. They too can cause impaction. It would be like eating too much popcorn...trouble.
Yes, you definitely need supplements. A reptile/amphibian multivitamin and a calcium with vitamin D3 supplement. Use calcium/D3 every other feeding (lightly dusted) and the MVI as directed per the type you buy, at minimal once a week, but not on the same day as the calcium. Vitamin D3 is needed in the calcium for proper absorption.
These are a few pointers for you.
Congrats on your new frog!![]()
