    if i got the 18x18x24 what type of lighting would i use?

    i have a bearded dragon so i know all about the uvb lights and such do frogs need just a uvb on top of their screen? or do they need any type of heat pad on the bottom of their tank..ive never use a heat pad before..i know they need humidity thats not a problem and ill get a very nice temp/humid monitor for the tank.

    i just wanna know what is the best to put at the bottom..im thinking big flat river stones and live moss..but what kind of moss?

    and do you guys reccomend those branches that you get from the pet store that bend everywhere if i sanitize it before i put it in?
    orrrr....bamboo rods?

    This is debatable. Normally its said that no UVB is required because they are nocturnal. But recent studies are showing that this may not be true. If you want to be on the safe side you could go for a 5.0 uvb stip. It cant hurt!

    It depends on the temps in your house. If it drops below 75degrees then I would recommend one of the "rain forest" heat pads. It can be placed on any of the walls on your tank.

    Personally I dont like moss because its hard to keep alive. And the dead stuff you buy at the pet store smells strange. Thats just a personal preference. Most members on this site build a false bottom and then have coco husk with leaf litter on top. If you decide to go with the stones make sure they are larger then your frogs mouth to avoid accidental ingestion.

    As long as they are thick and strong enough to hold the frogs weight then they are all good! Keep in mind Whites Tree Frogs get pretty heavy when full grown.
