First terrarium - tree frogs

[Mikey von]

The room does not get cold, maybe 60 min when we are not home and do not have a fire going, so that sounds perfect.


What about a filter or pump? It will be a small volume of water, maybe 4 gallons. Do most run a filter or just do frequent water changes?

Thanks again for all the help!

Use a small internal filter, and do regular water changes

Well,we got two cute fbt last night and got the tank set up. We have a wisper 10i filter and 2.5 uvb light. The tank looks great, but we already want to make a change.

With the river rock in, we want to make the water depth higher by 1-2". This will make the water level go above our clay pellets and into our fine coco fiber substrate. Is this OK or do we need to raise our false floor so the coco fiber is completely out of the water?

Pictures to come soon!

Providing your FBT has at least one dry area in the enclosure, it should be fine. However i would be worried about the coco substrate clogging up your filter.
