    Default Re: Red eyed tree frogs questions.

    Aaargh, I forgot to answer the other questions...
    First, the plants: in addition to those, the common pothos plant(epipremnum Aureum) is an easy choice. Ferns are a good choice, as well. I haven't used a lot of them myself, only an austral gem fern(Bird's nest fern).
    UV lighting isn't a necessity. UV lighting provides vitamin D3 which is necessary for frogs, but calcium supplements often include D3 in addition to calcium so that UV lighting is unnecessary. Some people suggest uv might be good for the plants of the vivarium, but I dont know about that either way.
    Captive-bred is always preferable to wild caught. They start life in captivity and it makes them much more used to it. LLL Reptiles and Josh's Frogs are good online resources for frogs, but they might not have RedEyes right now. I'll check their stock after this.
    A general rule of thumb for food item size is to choose insects no wider than the distance between the frog's eyes.
    I think your temperature and humidity sound fine.
    1 Male Giant African Bullfrog
    2 Woodhouse's Toads
    11 Pacific Treefrogs
    1 Dubia Roach Colony
    2 Australian Green Treefrogs
