    The dumpy tree frog in the whites tree frog of the exact same frog. the dumpy tree frog would not do good in enclosure this small and it will need a lot more bushy plants because it lives in a more dense type of a forest than just the plain forest floor. If you buy a green or a gray tree frog they will be wild caught so no matter what you do the American tree frogs are wild-caught and the dumpy tree frog will get too big for this setup in about 2 to 3 years. I think your setup would be great possibly for a tomato frog or some type of Reed frog. You might be able to search for a smaller captive-bred tree frog species. Josh's Frogs and LLL Reptile are highly favored in regards of captive frogs. There is also a Mourning gecko that you could keep it stays small and you could potentially have a group inside the enclosure. You could also attempt fire belly toads.

    I appreciate the clarification - looking up pictures they definitely seemed too large. (Someone also told me I could put a crested gecko in here...which is also not true! )

    I would *LOVE* to put reed frogs in here, but do they need a riparium or paludarium set up? From what i'm seeing online, there aren't any primarily terrestrial set-ups. I'm not a huge fan of their colors, but I am considering a mourning gecko for the cage. =/ It seems the 12x12x18 is the equivalent of a betta bowl as far as legitimate housing goes.
