Almost everything sounds good from what you have shared. A couple things to keep in mind or alter.
1. The high temp you have is a bit to much. You should aim for 75 - 78F during the day. The low end is good, but the 80+ during the day will zap the humidity form the air quick.
2. The tank. Without knowing how old your Red is the tank will quickly get to small for him/her. You will want to invest in at least a 24" tall tank at some point. Reds (and other tree frogs) want to be up away from the ground as much as possible. in the grand scheme of things 24" is nothing compared to what they prefer, but when they are juveniles a shorter/smaller tank is preferred to help them find food.
3. Feeding - I feed my 5 reds from a glass bowl. The crickets can jump on glass so they wait in it patiently to be eaten. It took the reds a couple days to figure out how to get at the crickets in the bowl, but now they are pros. The bowl method does 2 things for you. First it allows you to easily tell how many crickets were eaten the night before and secondly will keep you from having crickets that don't get eaten die in the tank and foul up the soil that much faster.
Other than this few things I can't think of anything else based on what you have provided. Keep up the good work!
