A glass top with a space for air is the best setup you can get! Use an under tank heat pad, and make sure the substrate is at least 3 1/2" deep so he get to hot. Also, just a reminder, keep the substate fairly damp all the way through( not just the top). UVA/UVB lights are realy not rquired with this type of frog. It has been known to cause major damage to there eyesight.
