    Default Re: Phyllomedusa tomopterna- Super Tiger Legged Monkey Tree Frog-- Container Type?

    I have a few books by the author who wrote it, knows his stuff. He also has a book out called simply 'treefrogs' which is good. The joshsfrogs caresheet is species specific and they breed a lot of frogs so I would trust them. The 18x18x18" is around 25 gal, so I would keep 4 in that size because they're not that big, not as much as 8 like said in the caresheet, that's a bit overcrowded buuuuut you would be much better with a larger tank, especially if you want to plant it because drainage layer tanks up height and plants grow tall. You can keep tree frogs in standard fish tanks with a screen top, it's just the reptile ones are better because of the front opening doors, when you open from the top the animals get stressed and the hassle of having to move the light and heat fixtures everyday is annoying. Two other features that the reptile tanks offer which make them better for tree frogs is that the Exo Terra's have more ventilation and you can get taller tanks. I don't personally own these frogs (though they are going to be my next purchase) I have kept/keep quite a few which require similar care.
