For buying frogs, and depending on what species you are looking for, there's Understory Enterprises. It's been a love story so far...

So here is the pictures of my current build. (sorry for the bad pics, they were taken with my phone, until I can find my camera charger.

I finished the background yesterday. Today I tipped the tank upside to let all the loose dirt fall off the background and reveal any spots I may have missed. I then used more silicone to fix the spots that I missed and put more of the dirt on the background. Tomorrow, after it has cured, I will be then adding the substrate and water. From here I will be monitoring the temp/humidity for a couple days to ensure everything is running smoothly. So I should have my frog in about a weeks time

It's hard work, isn't it? But how rewarding it is, too!

Yea, a lot of planning. I spent weeks with the tank just looking at it and drawing out different setups that I could use that would work. I actually already made a setup with this tank, had it all done, but did not like how the background was done, I made it too big where it was actually taking up the land area, so I tore that down and did this. So far I am really happy with how it is setup. Hopefully everything else goes smoothly from here on. I will be getting my screen for the top of the tank this week as well and then I should be done everything once I get the waterfall and fogger put in the tank.

I have actually been e-mailing someone about a Cuban Tree Frog. Getting rid of it for $10 only 8 months old and very healthy. I did some reading and I don't see much difference for care with these frogs as the whites tree frog (what I had planned on getting). So this is what I will be getting once I am done.

any comments or suggestions would be greatly appreciated as I am new to this

So I got some time today and finally finished my tank (will post pictures soon). I have had it running for about 4 hours now. I have a screen cover on the top and have about 75% of it with plastic wrap around it to help with humidity. It is sitting around 90% at a temp of 71 F.

I added rocks to the water area so he will have a spot to soak in. Filled it up with water and on the land side, I used moss as the substrate. I have the waterfall working smoothly and the fogger is getting a nice layer of fog,

I am going to need to find something to raise the temp of it as I believe 71F is a little too low for these frogs

got a question about the glass. I tried searching "cleaning glass" and nothing came up. So I apologize if this is a repeat question. I have had my tank done for a couple days now, and I have a fogger that sits in the water to create the fog, and plastic wrap over part of the screen top to help keep humidity in, because of this I am getting fogged up sides. What's the best way to deal with this? I have been taking paper towel and wiping the glass to clear it up, but that will only work so much. Is there something better to help keep it gone?
