males aren't eating

[jasonm96]

One of the frogs I haven't kept is Whites, but I have researched into their care thorougly and from what I've gathered I would suggest dropping the ambient down to 75-78F at day - 80F being your max, with a nighttime drop to 68F or at least 75F. Many recommend a basking area 85F to 90F.

50% humidity shpuld be fine most of the time, increased with a spraying several times each week is recommended. As long as it's not constantly above 60% there's no need to remove the waterfall.

Hope this helps until someone else comes along

Temps sound about okay. A drop like Jason suggests would be good though.

It could be you're right and the frogs have been fooled into feeling that it's breeding season. Especially if they think the waterfall is rain. That could have happened if they were especially cold before moving to the tank and now they think it's spring. A slight temp drop might help with that or the frogs might just get over it in time. I don't think the waterfall's a bad thing, overall, like Jason said. But if they don't seem to be settling down and eating and they seem too thin it might be a problem.

Alternatively, the frogs could just be shy after moving to a new tank. I have one that took a while to adjust and I had to resort to leaving a feeding bowl with crickets in the tank, because that's the only way he would take them for a while.

Ok, iI went ahead and set the hotspot of the cage to be 80, so the ambient should be around ~76. Hopefully you both are right and its just the new cage jitters, I will report back to this thread once I got someone eating. I took elly's idea and put a glass bowl with crickets in the cage in hopes they will be enticed by it.

How do you know that the males aren't eating?
