    The girly seems fine. I am going to get new substrate today. from now on I will be using distilled water or water treatment. I feel terrible! I just wanted them to be happier because it has gotten much hotter and much more dry the last two weeks. I never had an issue before with the water

    Thank you so much for your suggestions! I will put them to work asap.

    Does anyone have a better suggestion for substrate for the chubby instead of coco fiber soil to prevent her eating it?

    thanks guys!

    You can use distilled water to mist the enclosure while avoiding the frog; but not on the frog's dish. For dish I only recommend dechlorinated (Seachem Prime or ExoTerra Aquatize) tap.

    ABG type soil mix can replace the shredded coco. The soil should be prepared with dechlorinated tap too and replaced monthly unless it's ABG soil with natural plants and an established colony of springtails and other detritus feeders.
    Remember to take care of the enclosure and it will take care of your frog !​

    I'm sorry about your frog For my frog I use reverse osmosis water so it is already filtered and dechlorinated. I hope your other frog does okay and lives a long happy life
