My question was: How best can I ensure that each individual is getting enough food in a community tank?

I'd be grateful if we could stay on topic.
I understand you have a good size tank but that does not ensure the safety of the red eye tree frog. They are not the same size the whites tree frog is the third largest species in the world. They take a long time to get that size but if you are planning on the whites dying before it gets full size or the red eye then it should be okay. People have tried this before and it eventually led to problems for one species. The White lipped tree frog I believe is the only other tree frog that can live with the whites because they aren't bigger and from Australia.

I would like to stay on topic but I do not want to get away from the fact that this is something that will become problematic at some point and I want to warn you before you move further.

I have mixed species setups and I understand how to make big enclosure mixed species setups but it takes a lot of research and planning and owning the species alone first before trying it. I'm not against mixed setups but for one these frogs are from different parts of the world and the whites tree frogs has been known to eat other species.

There have been new people recently coming to the forum and asking for help on their mixed species setups and nobody really has been responding to these types of posts because they know it's a bad idea and are trying to help and the person asking the question doesn't say what led them to mix the specific species or they don't ask people if the frogs can live together on a frog forum full of people who have experience with frogs and helping people.

It just gets frustrating when someone tries to give advice and a new person comes along and doesn't explain anything and just knows they are right.

I hope you take some time and read some posts on here about red eye setups and whites tree frog setups and think about the risks of mixing the whites with a smaller species.

Good luck
