Sick red eye tree frog died overnight

When you receive a new frog going into a newly set up enclosure, the frog will need to acclimate to its new surroundings. Covering three sides of the enclosure will reduce stress and also having the enclosure in a quiet place will also help.

I feed my Red Eyed Tree Frogs with a cricket bowl which is basically a small bowl placed into the substrate to hold the crickets. The bowl is slippery so the crickets are stuck in there. Usually any escaped crickets will eventually fall back into the bowl for later feeding.
This will also help in monitoring how well the frog is eating.

Make sure the crickets are no longer than the width of the frogs head.

I usually buy small crickets for my Red Eyes.

As for setup, if you use plenty of live plants and branches or vines, you will give the frog plenty of places to feel secure and climb and hide.
Your frogs are not usually found on the substrate and will move around the enclosure moving from branch to leaf to vine and so on.
Provide for that by having higher accents.

Also change your water at least every other day if not daily. You probably won't find they dirty the water dish that often but you still need to change it.

Ill make sure to cover his cage up. And the cricket bowl is genius, haha. Ill head over to petsmart and get one today. I provided a lot of vines and branches for him, but they're fake. This is acceptable, correct? He sleeps on them and also on the wall of the tank. I also got him a little house like thing that is covered up and has fake leaves on top. I looked in the cage and couldn't see him, so I think hes inside of it, which is a good thing. I think. :P

Just use one of the cereal bowls from the house. Glass is best but any will work. Just rinse it well before using.

And sure, fake is fine but routinely you may need to clean the fake leafs and vines.... once a month would work as long as your removing droppings as you find them.
As for substrate, you don't need to change it if your not getting a bad smell or mites in it. If you make a drainage layer you may never need to change it. All depends on how much misting you need to do to keep the humidity in.

Ah, okay.

Ill keep all of this is mind. Thank you for the great information. If I have anymore questions, ill post them here.

I'm now awaiting the arrival of my new red eye, which should be arriving tomorrow hopefully.
