    Beautiful setup for a beautiful frog 🌿🐸! Loved your emphasis on substrate quality/ ingredients + adding beneficial bacteria. It’s something most people overlook! Soil undergoes a nitrogen cycle just like aquariums do!

    Ok that is to small for a RETF, i have them myself and I would not have them in lower then 36 inch so exo terra 24” x 18” x 36 would be great. And so mutch more big leaf plants, thats not enough.

    Could this enclosure be suitable for a whites tree frog? I know that certain plant types require certain substrate + temp + humidity levels, but I really love your design! Is it possible to use a similar lay out on a 24 x 18 x 18 enclosure?

    How many frogs can you safely house in this setup. Do tree frogs sleep all day or are they activate? By the way do you ever think of breeding your frogs, tadpoles are fascinating .

    Nice video…. Just so you know, most frogs absolutely hate when substrate sticks to them… red eye tree frogs are one of the pickiest when it comes to conditions and cleanliness… you’re going to want to find a way to keep the frog From getting all that substrate stuck to it.

    • @kaylaroach
      @kaylaroach  2 роки тому +1

      Thank you so much for the advice Troy! I appreciate that so much! I’m glad you mentioned it. I’ll put a heavy layer of leaf litter over the soil to prevent that from happening! 😊🐸

I found this video interesting as you used the tank I was considering. What moss do you use?

      I’ve used many different brands of topsoil from garden centres, hardware stores, etc. I don’t stick with one brand in particular! They have all worked great, the most important part is to sift through the soil and remove any pieces of plastic or unwanted debris.
