Quarantine opinions?

[flybyferns]

Thinking about adding another whites to my tank in the near future, but I need opinions on quarantine? How should I go about it, for how long, and what tank size? Thanks!

Good for you !
QT is very important ...especially for this species !

A QT enclosure for a whites should be a minimum of 10 gallons in size.
"How log" depends on the results of the fecal test that needs to be done!
( All whites tree frogs should have ,at the very least, fecal testing for parasites)
So, you will need to find a qualified herp vet.
If this is an "additional whites" they need ample space in their permanent enclosure.
( more than 10/gallon per frog)

Other tests (besides a fecal for parasites) to , very serioulsy consider, regardless of symptoms
