    Go ahead and cover three sides of the enclosure too. It helps out a lot with reducing stress. You can pretty much use whatever.

    At 3 in SVL you can move frog to 10 gallon tank or ExoTerra small low enclosure. The blue lights are similar to daylight and not good for "albinos." Recommend replace with red, black, or ceramic heat emitters .
    Remember to take care of the enclosure and it will take care of your frog !​

    this frog needs a electrolyte bath with some honey asap! can you do it now? he doesn't look too bad, yes bloated, I've seen worse

    do warm bath, so you stick your hand in it and it feels little warm, then add electrolyte solution ( 1part of water 1 part of electrolytes( unflavoured pedyalite or any other, as long as no coloring or flavor) and a few drops of honey, keep in it for 20 min, repeat for 2-3 days if needed.

    lights- i'd get rid of any light that you have in general, whatever light he is getting from other enclosures or window if enough, and stick a small heat mat to the side for a heat or alternatively use light holder (you know the one you can hang a lamp on) and hand your 50W infrared lamp above the tank.
    but at 3" as Carlos mentioned I would totally move him into 12x12x12 exo terra
    Save one animal and it doesn't change the world, but it surely changes the world for that one animal!
