New here and hope to learn alot.

Well I'm new here. I'm an avid planted aquarium keeper and have a large task at hand. I've created a large Riparium www.ripariumsupply.com out of a 150g tank. I've got ~9" of water in it and am looking for a Tree Frog from SE Asia for the above water section. I've got my eye on the Jade Tree Frog, but is it available in the US or domestically at all? I would love to have a couple of pairs in my tank.

My setup consists of a high humidty rain forest stream edge from SE Asia. Here are pictures of my setup, I do have more wood arriving this week to finish off the scape.










No expense has been spared on setting this up. Hardware is as follows:

150g 72x18x30 Reef Ready tan with over flows removed cannisters plumbed through bulkheads in the bottom.
2- Eheim 2217 Filters filtering about 45g of water
2 Inline heaters
UV Sterilizer
3 70 watt JBJ MH units running 4200k Phillips Mastercolour 92 CRI bulbs
Mist King misting system with 10 heads

Lots of Driftwood that runs from the bottom of the tank and out.

I know that there would be the concern if the frog fell in the water it may drown. I've got lots of wood that runs from teh bottom of the tank to above the water so I don't see that as being a large problem.

As far as feeding I feed my 31 Betta Albimarginata all live foods consisting of the following:

Californian Black worms
Wingless fruit flies
Micro adn Walter Worms
Grindal Worms
Brine Shrimp

Raising and caring for live foods is not a problem and if I needed to start keeping crickets that wouldn't be an issue. There is lots of wood for them to hang out on along with plants they can hide in the bushes of.

Ideas and encouragement? I've been in search for the last couple of months for a good frog board to start on.

Interesting suggestion, was really hoping for a more colorful frog though. It would fit the bill though.
