I've seen a lot of farmbred specimens of the dennysi group coming by in great shape,
otherwise you could look into the Polypedates leucomystax, can prove quit forgiving regarding temperatures and humidity.
It's true the WC specimens tend to have all kinds of illnesses, mainly due to the method of capturing and transporting,
the farmbred specimens however seems to be handled better and don't have the problems seen in WC ones.

Rhacophorids are not the family i would reccomend beginning with either.
They are prone to stress, and if you finally succeed in acclimizing them, a little mistake puts them back in the shape you got them in.
Stressfull for them, and you.

However, keep in mind that all of them need to be housed rather large.
I don't know the tank size you got available, but i think it won't be big enough for a treefrog looking at the species it was for.
I have a number of terrariums and am willing to purchase more if need be. Would an 18X24 be large enough or do I need to go even larger? I would deffinately be more inclined to purchase a captive bred gliding frog than a wild cought one. I didn't plan on using the tank that the bullfrog was in. I have in my collection two vietnamese mossy frogs, four green tree frogs, four whites tree frogs, one squirrel tree frog, two red eyed tree frogs, and two bullfrogs..I have a decent amount of experience with frogs. seven out of fifteen of my frogs are from the wild but I have never treated them for anything.
However these are native species and may not have parasites or any other hardships. I really would like to have either a yellowspotted climing toad or a gliding frog, but they are not easily obtained in the pet industry.
