Hi there folks posted a pic here of the set up i have after rescuing the wee tree frogs and 2 anolies hope you all think that its okay for them still struggling to get those temps up costing me a n arm and a leg hahah comments on the set up would be great can i also as if i was right in saying i read somewhere that tree frogs can eat small pinkies i may have been wrong???

cheers H

I think it looks good. I would probably use up more of the center space to give them more room to climb. Maybe hang more plants from the top or get branches. Don't feed them pinkies. Crickets should be their main diet. Variety could consist of roaches, locusts, meal worms, etc.

Hey very nice set up is that a exo terra 24x18x24? Be careful about mixing species in the same terrarium you'll hear that alot here. What kind of tree frogs and anoles? Make sure they need same temp and humidity levels....and they might eat each other depending on size. Yes some large tree frogs can eat pinkies but from what I've read they are high in fat and arent recomended except as a treat lol. poor lil mice! I have a grey tree frog and use crickets as a staple diet and might give house flies if we even catch them =D

Very nicely done.

slightly shocked here as you know i had two american tree frigs one about 2 inches the other about just under and inch as such, and the two green anolies just know them as that to be honest very small also.......thanks for comments on the set up but i am in a bit of panic one of the american tree frogs is gone, there's no way it could have escaped its the smallest one of the two, would one eat another.......i took out all plants hanging ect and checked everywhere and nothing no sign gone??? if this is the case is it best to get another one for company for the bigger fella??

Sorry no I did not know what species of frog u had thats why I asked

Yes they will eat eachother if they are hungry and can fit them in thier mouths. Its always best to house same species of around same size. Im sorry for you loss !

Could the anoles have eaten it I've heard of salamanders and frogs eating eachother?

What size terrarium? make sure you dont cram them I've been told 10gallons per frog and since you have mixed species the might need more to avoid stress and aggression.

Hope this helped =)

hiya rae and thanks tank is 24x18x24 size you had thought, thing is that the anolies eat a lot during the day mainly locusts if im honest now i had put crickets in for the two frogs at night tried it various ways and did not seem like they were eating, for example, when i had put some in a small glass bowl to stop them escaping next morning all crickets and even wax worms were still there, this occurred for few days running now at night i put in some loose but concerned in case there are just hiding in the moss if you know what i mean. not convinced the frog is eating as such, i was advised to dish the crickets as if i just put them in the tank then they may bite the tree frogs..........thats what i get for being a rescue lady haha
