Hi guys,

Im looking into getting a white dumpy tree frog for my boyfriend for our 3 year anniversary. He has had one before but I have not. I currently have one bearded dragon (adult).

And I was thinking of getting a 25 gal tank. with smooth river rocks in the bottom on one half and then soil with moss on top on the other end with a water bowl maybe in the rock area? like put the bowl in then the rocks around it up to the rim of the water bowl.

Ive never owned a frog before and really need some help. Im going to buy him the whole set up and want the best of the best. so please help me with what substrate..half water half land? what should i get?

First I want to say I'm defenitely not an expert in white's, but I've kept mine for more than 18 months and from what I learned, they'll use the water more or less frequently depending on the time of the year.

During the summer, when it gets really hot (at least in Portugal) I provide more or less half-half (water and humus), and they are always in the water or nearby. When the temperature falls a bit, they'll start climbing into the top of the plants or gathering up in the cornes of the land zone and almost stop using the water. That's when I change the setup for a terrarium with a medium plastic lake.

I figured out this is how my Litorias are happy, they never refuse food and they're quite active

I hope it helps

What you describe is exactly how I have mine set up for my three. They enjoy it. Check out my photo album to see pictures. And they're very messy (which is why I decided against a water area, after trying it for a while), but this setup seems to stay pretty intact.

I agree with you, that's the ideal, but I do think they can be housed quite nicely in smaller terrariums such as 18x18x18 for a couple
