    Everything seems fine except the water. If it is not dechlorinated it will causebthe frog to Tox Out. Toxing Out Syndrome is essentially a disease caused by toxins or chemical being absorbed by the frog through the skin poisoning the frog. Also you must be sure the water is shallow. No deeper than up to the frog's chin and the dish must be easy for the frog to get in and out of. These frogs are terrestrial and are not good swimmers.

    Get him a little warmer too. Around 27° during the day and it can drop a couple degrees at night. Humidity needs to be between 75% and 80%.

    You can use the 20x20 and leave it on constantly.

    You can only use bottled water if it is natural spring water. Filtered bottled water must be treated with a water dechlorinating agent like Prime or ReptaSafe and the same goes for tap water. This must also be used to treat any water you use for the frog including moistening the substrate, misting, and water dish.

    Raise the humidity to 80%. Also raise his temp up to 28°.
