    Default New Viv - Hyla versicolor

    I have been working on an 18x18x24 exo terra for the grey tree frogs. I have had them in a 35 gallon hex tank that has just been a huge pain to maintain. I'm not quite finished, still need to get some plants in. I am going the cheap route with plants for this viv. Greys have a tendency to trample.

    Planted yesterday, obsessed all night and again today but didn't move anything, so I guess I need to be content with it!

    Good thing is, my greys rarely take cover. They hang out in the open. They'll have the cover of they want it though

    Wow, this is really beautiful. I'm wondering if you can fill me in a bit on the design and how the frogs are taking to it? I have recently purchased an Extra Large Exo Terra for my greys (10 females, 5 males) to live in and want to set it up with circulating water. I like the elevated plastic structure that you have here with a corner cut out. Do you have a filter and pump down in the bottom to clean and recirc the water? Is that working well and does this design reduce cleaning/maintenance? Also, where did you acquire the plastic grid and the tree bark backing? Looks great!

    As large as an exo terra extra large is, I would be cautious with putting 15 frogs in there. Let's not forget the 10 gallons per frog rule. You're talking about 100 gallons, less even when you consider space taken up by background and drainage and soil, for 15 frogs. I think splitting the group up would be best.
