Moss?

Other than humidity, does the moss serve any purpose? Might I just be better off with the carpet? I live in CA so there is plenty of humidity throughout the year.

your hummidity is low anyways, but no, mosses purpose is for humidity and a natralustic enclosure. If your frog seems to like it then I'd leave it. And if your hummidity stays that low, get a potted plant. If u get one from the store let it sit in running water over night to get all fertalizer out of plant. You probably have to check poisonis list too. Then repot it with organic soil. No pearlite or vermeculite. Get a pot with no drain, or plug the drain. If u water your plant and it hits heat mat it can crack your glass. make sure if your frog sits right on heat mat, it's not more than 95 degrees. Moss is handy for plugging up cricket hiding spots, and doesn't have a smell (as strong) if it dries out. But dry moss will stick to your frog. Bamboo can grow right from water with no soil, put by light or heat mat to increase evaporation. Try to keep humidity above 60, some say 70-80 is ideal. Maybe try using less moss in special places, and see how that goes. U can tell yr a city person, cuz us country folk like that smell. No offence.

Also, assming u have mesh top, u can cover half with glass. I forgot that part since my very old terrarium, has full glass cover. Most every1 has to do that with new terrariums. But whites need air, so don't cover competely. Good luck
