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!

Really cool looking Red eye and really like the set up. I got my first 1st, 2 weeks ago and is still so small but looking to start a build on a bigger home for it soon. I found this video interesting as you used the tank I was considering. What moss do you use? I have no luck with moss in my Dart frog tanks and your moss looks amazing really jealous lol :) New to your channel but will subscribe and the way you did the video I think was really good :)

This is such a beautiful set up! I am wondering though, did you only use sphagnum moss to plant the suspended pothos and bromeliad since they aren’t in soil?

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 .

I’m not familiar with the husbandry requirements for Black Eyed Tree Frogs. I’m sure there are some similarities to Red Eyed Tree Frogs, but I would suggest doing extensive research in order to be best prepared for the exact species you plan on getting! 😊🐸

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 2 жыл бұрын

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! 😊🐸

@kaylaroach Жыл бұрын

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.
