    Bottled water can be quite unsafe for frogs: http://www.frogforum.net/vivarium-te...hing-else.html. You should have at least an aquarium glass floating thermometer in the enclosure and for matching water temps during water changes. Those are only the equivalent of a couple $$ in the larger pet stores.
    Remember to take care of the enclosure and it will take care of your frog !​

    Was fearing that . Try and get some Seachem Prime or ExoTerra Aquatize and use it with tap water, do not overdose.

    Just search for "Floating Glass Thermometer;" should be able to find online .

    Are the FBTs gonna die from this chlorine?! It says 11mg/l of chlorine in the bottle. Thats loads! Then again they havent shown any signs of being ill and its been a month of using bottled water
