    I have him on the zoo med shavings, they are suppose to help raise the humidity, temp is 65-70, humidity is 40-60, I feed him live crickets, I put the blue chemical stuff in his water to take out any impurities, I also have him in the tall terrarium, with a rock wall/vines/fake plants and moss on the bottom.

    Ok, I'm assuming they are Aspen shavings, those are ok. Stay away from pine and cedar, they are toxic.The temp is a little on the low side. What are you using to heat the tank? The humidity is also a little low. Coconut husk is much better at keeping the humidity up. Also, a heat light will dry the air out faster. What is the blue stuff called? Blue coloration can sometimes mean copper which is bad for amphibians. Other than that, does he have any discoloration or blotches? Does he seem bloated at all?

    The bark is Fir tree bark, it says that it does not have any aromatic oils that are found in pine or cedar shavings. The blue stuff isn't a problem, I've been using it ever since I got him and its been fine. I use a heat lamp with a 25w bulb, thats the biggest size it can take. I have one of those tall tanks that have the 2 doors on the front that swing open open, its made by Exo Terra.

    I hate to say this but Fir trees and Pine trees are the same thing for the most part. Both are evergreens with needles and not leaves like Aspen trees. Pine bedding is not recommended for most herps because of the off gasses it puts out when it is exposed to humidity. Aspen is an entirely different type of tree, not an evergreen, and a much better source for wood shavings for herps if that is what is called for, or cypress mulch, cocoafiber, bed-a-beast etc, are all better than fir or pine shavings. I have heard that some whites tree frogs will be brown if they don't have enough heat in their viv.
