New Whites tree frog setup

Depends, if you live in a climate similar to Australia in terms of UV index, temperature and humidity and can keep them outside in a screened enclosure for a couple days a week... but this is the UVB side of things. When kept in the tank, proper basking and ambient temperatures need to be provided. I'm not a big fan doing this as every time they feed they should really have proper heat and UVB to make sure every meal is put to use. I would use a 5% compact, with more cover at one side so it can escape the light. The UVB can be in an open or partial open area in the tank and with a 25-40W heat lamp/spot light depending on how much it takes to get a basking temp of 85F or so, then ambient temperatures 77F at the cool side

I'm not sure if your familiar with Texas but out weather is very similar too that everyday but as of right now it cold so he is inside in that tank but I am going to buy him a tall tank but until he can actually climb on his own ( I got him from petco , and I'm pretty sure it's a calcium deficiency) he will stay in this tank and I will help him up where he likes to bask at. As of now he is doing a lot better with the calcium I have been giving him

I know in the US California is similar and breeders keep them in greenhouses there but not sure on Texas. But like I said, the problem is that this can cause shortfalls as there's not constant access to UV and heat, which should be available to make use of every meal. Keeping outside all of the time in the summer then indoors in winter would be best, if that's what you've been doing. But then UVB and heat should be in the winter if you want to keep it active and feeding
