    You can bowl feed crickets, use a clean glass bowl that is at least 1.5 inches deep. You will still have some escapees wandering around now and then, but not tons. You do lose a lot of vertical space when cutting off 8 inches though. You need to make sure that the water is very easy for a green tree frog to get out of. While they can swim, if they cannot get out easily, they could definitely drown. If you do not want a lot of land, have you considered going with a different species of frog, like firebellies, which will be more tolerant of a large water area? While green tree frogs go to the water during breeding season, and can be found in swampy areas, they do not typically live inches from water their entire lives with little access to land.

    Is there a different type of animal I could keep instead of the green tree frogs that would do better in my setup? I really like the idea of tree frogs but if they won't work with my setup, I would love to hear other possibilities. I definitely want to include the cherry shrimp in the tank and I would like to include the driftwood "tree".
    With that said, what would my options be?
