Lighting for whites

[Jenste]

I am adopting 4 white tree frogs with full set up minus the lighting

I read the care guide posted by Kurt, it is AMAZING and very helpful, but did not cover lighting...

So, I have come to you guys.
Will be a 34 G viv, 18x18x24 (did not know if size/height influence the lighting needed. )

I would get either the Exo terra or Zoo med 18 inch lighting hood with the 2 screw in light fixtures. I would go to the local hardware or walmart and put 2 Daylight colored 20 watt compact fluorescent bulbs in it and you're good to go. Don't need special bulbs other than being daylight colored.

I have that same size set up, you can see it here: http://www.frogforum.net/tree-frogs/...tree-frog.html
I'm using the same type of light-hood John recommended.
For lights I'm using a 25 watt 5500k colored light and a 14 watt LED light, both from lightyourreptiles.com.

These really aren't all that pricey, though if you need them quickly, which I assume you do, going to a Home Depot or Lowes would be just as good. Aim for lights in the color range of 5500k - 6500k with the highest lumen rating you can. (If you're using live plants)
Those hoods suggest only using wattage up to 26 watt for compact florescent lighting so keep that in mind as well.
