Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

Care info for Whites Tree Frog
I am considering getting one of these for my son; however, I will be the primary care giver. I have a 30 gallon tall aquarium fitted with an acrylic topper, making it front opening. Had this tank specifically for frogs but just never got any further than adding the topper.
Can those of you with experience tell me what the ideal setup is for these animals (substrate, decor, heating, lighting, etc.)? Pics of setups would be great and links to care sheets or other reading material would also be appreciated.
Thanks,
Bart

I kept mine in a 10 gallon w/ lots of climbing space, a big bowl of water for soaking, driftwood and fake plants. I used Bed A Beast for the substrate and it did really well in there. I used a low wattage heat lamp to keep it at the proper temps. They are a cool pet for sure!

Make sure your water dish is shallower than the frog is tall, they can drown. I use real moss for my substrate and they love it.. I like to have all live stuff in my tanks including live plants. Make sure they are strong because White's get big, fat and heavy and you don't want them to break. Also, make sure the plants aren't poisonous to animals. Keep it warm and mist often and spray down the glass. White's are a very hardy frog, you should do great!!

Oh, I also put a layer of aquarium rocks under my moss, for drainage. That's very important so the moss doesn't get too soggy!!
