Grey Tree frog enclosure

[sickmak90]

Do you think this setup will be enough for 2-3 grey tree frogs? That is a UVB light and the humidity is staying nice and high. There is currently one in there that is smaller than a dime and I have two others about to turn into frogs.

Hey what size is it? If it's the 12 x 12 x 18" types then no, too small but if it's the 18 x 18 x 24" then you're good for three or more adults

[sickmak90]

It's definitely 12x12x18. I have another one that is slightly larger as well, I could always split them up later. I'm still not sure if I will end up with 1, 2, or 3.

That's really too small for long term housing for even one, the minimum is a 18x18x18" tank for 1-4

Once they start getting a little bigger I'll have no problem buying a larger setup. Right now the one is smaller than a dime and the other two are still tadpoles.

If you make their larger tank a live vivarium with plants and soil, it will pay off in the long run. That kind of setup needs to be sanitized constantly to prevent bacterial buildup.

[sickmak90]

How would live plants and soil keep bacteria buildup down?

[Dace]

The nitrogen cycle- breaking down waste, using it as fertilizer.

Im going to do a little research about what plants and soil I need and I'll go from there.
