Tree frogs

Tree frogs. Please help

Hello everybody Ive been thinking about starting a tree frogs tank. I have some questions I need answered. I was wondering if multiple types of tree frogs can be kept together in the same enclosed? How big of a tank will I need? What kinds of live plants can I use? What kind of substrate? Do they swim? How much do I feed them? If you have any other tips for carrying for tree frogs I would very much appreciate it. I'm looking to start getting everything I need in the nxt couple of weeks, and then bring home the frogs.

I just got my first red-eyed tree frogs in March. I'd recommend finding a frog forum and reading the care sheet. Also, sometime last year Reptiles Magazine did a good article about RETF which got me interested to begin with.

Hi Nica ~

Good that you found this subforum. Aliza has some useful tips.

I've never kept TFs.

the Dendroboards are pretty commonly recommended and have a wealth of information.

Gotta agree with Aimless, Dendroboard is awesome and a huge wealth of knowledge when it comes to keeping sub-tropical and tropical amphibians. Caudata.org is another great amphibian resource, but geared towards gummy lizards (aka newts and salamanders).

I'm a huge fan of retf and clown tree frogs. Rainforest Junky's has a few care sheets on his site and always has top quality frogs when he vends at the Arlington, TX NARBC shows.

So I've decided that I want poison dart frogs instead. I have my enclosed set up and I'm watching the temperature and humidity
