    Just a few specifics on drainage layer, usually hydroballs are covered with a screen, or weed barier. I hear people do this with whites and bigger species because they burrow. Is this common practice when it's a smaller frog? And are u going to great stuff the back wall and all that sculpting too?
    Java fern is pretty, maybe pillow moss, a few nice rocks, and a bi color arrow plant. There's a beautiful variety popular at Walmart, white veins, dark green/ blue top, and purple underside.

    Gingerlee, tat is a good point, one that I completely forgot to mention! Yes, we do put a layer of screen just above the hydroball as a barrier... Thank you, it something that we should make clear if anyone else wants to go this route.

    As for the back wall, yes, we will use foam, silicone and a mixture of forest bark and coconut husk and sculp something beautiful... We should start designing soon and offer you a few ideas before moving ahead for inputs, additions, etc...!
