Temps sound ok to me, with the exception of the 65% being a bit on the low side as per Elly's post; lower temps result in poor digestion.

    Could you read this thread and answer the questions? They will help better determine your situation so folks can help you. Thanks! http://www.frogforum.net/tree-frogs/...enclosure.html
    actually, these parameters are ok. you guys seem to forget, white's have a ridiculous range in the wild. anywhere from close to arid conditions in the southern part of australia, to true rainforest conditions in indonesian rain forests. you can't always go by a care sheet on some frogs and a care sheet is nothing more than guideline, not law. that is the primary reason that they are such great beginner frogs, because their care is so varied, it's hard to mess it up. they acclimate to close to anything. i had a white's escape, only to find him two months later. he lived in an arid basement, living off of gosh knows what. he was a bit small, but no worse for wear after 2 months. try having an retf or dart pull that one off. tough, resilient frogs they are!!

    i will agree though, that removing frogs from their tank to feed is very stressful, and shouldn't really be done. also, white's hunt by movement, which is what makes crickets the best feeders for them. worms don't move enough and roaches only slightly more. but normally, if you can get them started on roaches, you won't have any issues.

    also agree with Lisa, if purchased from petco GET IT TESTED!!!
