No, red-eyes are a different ball game all together. I have never kept this species before. After looking at that picture, I am surprised that I haven't kept any before.

I guess you could keep him like you would for a toad or other terrestrial frog. I keep my toads, tomato frogs, and rubber frogs on a bed of sphagnum moss. I provide a shallow water dish and a place to hide. All have screen tops or live in critter keepers, but I am not sure it makes that much of a difference. It does with arboreal types, as they need good ventilation.

By the way Kurt, how toxic are they? Are they up there with the Darts, or more along the lines of a larger Bufo?

[Kurt]

Not sure. I read some where that they were and should not be housed with other species.

i have just read that they are very shy and reserved but havent found the temp and humidity yet.
one site just said in there care sheet to put them on a bed of newspaper i think i may stay away from that site.

he is gorgous also goes by the name tiger legged tree frog. just heard a recording of their song (sounds like a high pitch tap dripping).

thank you so much guys you have been fantastic with all your help

[Kurt]

You're welcome.

Hmmm... interesting. I love toxic animals, they kinda match my personallity. If you find out before me, let me know.

Kurt did more to help, but if I helped in any way, you're welcome

so far all i have found it that they are very shy creatures i havent found much out on the toxic levels or on the care of them but from other sites people have said they dont really tend to see their ones so im actually thinking maybe his not as bad as i thought and apparently they are quite hardy but i dont really want to test that theory.

funny thing is one of the whites tree frogs always sits on his head in the corner where they both perch or basically lays on top of him i get worried his being squished. now i know he can kill the others i dont feel as sorry for him any more

how can they have mixed that frog up with a white's?
they don't look anything like that - well, i guess they can camoflage a bit but that frog's legs are seriously cool.

by the way, what is that frog at the top of the forum? The third one.
