    Kurts is spot on here... frogs love to think they are hidden and protected.
    Your setup looks great and adding a few plants will make it look even cooler.
    I like Bromalaids and golden pathos (sp?) for my Whites Tree Frogs since they are sturdy and as whites get bigger they usually won't trash the plants from their weight.
    My Red Eyes on the other hand seem to not out weight some smaller plants and usually spend the night moving from leaf to leaf and rarely walk around on the substrate unless its a cricket they are after,
    Any plants you add, just rinse off really well to remove pesticides and fertilizers before adding to the viv.

    Check out some of the members photo albums for ideas. you don't have to go crazy, just add some to give the frog something he feels he can hide in/on/behind.

    Good luck with your next frog.

    I've seen bromiliad at Walmart here in Wisconsin. I've also seen fake ones on joshs frogs and local shop. If u get a live one, water the center of the plant, should have water at all times. I think I've also read that metabolic bone disease causes the hanging jaw, cuz the bones are soft. Make sure u r giving your animals the vitamins and calcium they need.

    Based on the picture of your set-up, if you get live plants you will need some that are highly tolerent to having their roots soaking in water. Spathiphyllum is a great plant in this situation.
