heating for these guys is sliiiiightly tricky, because you don’t wanna overdo it. heat lamps can dry out the air — and thus, their skin, which ain’t good. i have a heat mat underneath my frogs’ terrarium, hooked up to a thermostat that turns it on whenever the ambient temperature drops below 75F. this is the best way to give them ambient heat IMO, since they rarely spend time on the cage floor, if ever, and they’re not an animal that needs to bask. (and they can’t get burned by the mat or anything because it makes the substrate pleasantly warm, not overly hot)
they do just fine in a temperature range of like 75 - 80F, though it sometimes gets to like 73F in there in the winter just because the room gets chillier, and they don’t seem to care, lol. but below that would likely be too cold. and in the summer i don’t let their ambient temp get above 83F.
oh, and my thermostat also has the ability to regulate humidity! i had it hooked up to a ReptiFogger, which worked beautifully, but those damn things ALWAYS burn out after a while, and they’re not hella cheap to replace. i haven’t had one hooked up in a while for this reason, so i’ve just been manually misting as needed, but if you want a humidifier that doesn’t leave watermarks all over the glass and you have the money for it, the ReptiFogger is pretty cool. apparently you can replace the element that burns out for cheap, but i’ve never tried.
the thing i have that’s capable of regulating both heat and humidity is this. mine’s been going strong with 0 issues for almost 5 straight years. something to think about if you never wanna worry about heat/humidity. and a tip if you get a ReptiFogger — use distilled water. then you’ll have no mineral build-up in the components.
i just looked it up on amazon to send you a link, and found this... looks like it might actually work better. 👀
If you have a small enough airstone you can stick it inside of a sponge filter, so it doesn't disturb the water at the bottom of the tank as much. Here's a great video demonstrating this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BS7gIHUkhuo
Sponge filters are super cheap on Amazon. Here's the one I bought (only for a 10 gallon tank, though): https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07L565N7H/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Here's the air pump I bought on Amazon (again, only for 10 gallons): https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07HKHQJSQ/ref=ppx_od_dt_b_asin_title_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1
It's SUPER quiet, suctions onto the back of the tank, and the bubbles it produces are very tiny. I love it.
my tank is one of the glass front-opening small terrariums, so i think its 18" tall and 12 by 12 width. (so that sounds like the same size at yours?) i'm using the dome light fixures and a ceremic heat bulb (to keep temps up at night) along with a day light. i did end up buying a mercury vapor bulb but am only using it every other day right now, but i'm happy to switch if youve had good experience with the other light that you are talking about.
i also agree that it seems that tree frogs would benefit from some sort of small amount of UV lighting. but at the same time i'm not so full of myself that i think i'm right about everything just because it "makes sense" to me. let me know if you find any legit journal articles, but i'm going to provide the uv at least every other day and just see if i notice any differences in his overall behavior (perching locations, appetite, etc) thanks!
do you use the Exo Terra 35W Metal Halide Lamp? i found this on amazon at:
https://www.amazon.com/Exo-Terra-Metal-Halide-Lamp/dp/B00AGCT2LA/ref=sr_1_6?ie=UTF8&qid=1505409864&sr=8-6&keywords=bulb+halide+35w
i am just SO SO paranoid about causing irreversible eye problems with him
I use the same source of light for my frog. If my pothos can grow in there then I feel like it’s sufficient.
The heating mat is MUCH less drying than any bulbs. I didn’t need to use the CHE as much when it was warmer but as the temperatures have gone down I’ve had to use it more and I have been having to keep a closer eye on the humidity gauge. I’ve got it plugged into the thermostat all the time now and I’ve got to mist at least once a day, oftentimes twice.
I do really recommend a thermostat. I really love mine. I use an Inkbird Day/Night Thermostat thermostat so I can have a temp drop at night.
I highly suggest getting some type of foam/sponge thing to put over that filter intake. I lost a beloved ADF as a result of my oversight. His foot got stuck in one of the slats and he ended up drowning (they need to go to the surface roughly every 30 minutes to get air if I remember correctly). It was horrible taking his body off the intake :(
I'm only saying this because I don't want you to repeat what I went through.
I personally have 2 in a 2.5 gallon tank, but they are the only things living in it. So a question would be, do you plan on having other things such as fish? If you have fish, then probably 2 for 10 gallons. If not, then I could see 5 in a 10 gallon being fine.
And like u/numb3rb0y suggested, I would focus some more hides as well. Overall though, I like the tank set-up :)
Something like this? https://www.amazon.com/AGPtek%C2%AE-WH8040-Digital-Humidity-Controller/dp/B009VXXBCQ
Obviously the bigger the tank, the higher the cost, ESPECIALLY if the tank is glass. I like to build tanks out of high quality acrylic because it's cheaper (glass is fine for building to).
It's a 2.5 gallon tank, divided in half up to about 6 inches by some craft foam, sealed with silicone caulk (it's give or take a gallon of water).
It uses one of those tetra whisper filters powered by an air bubbler.
the ground is made up of about 3 inches of gravel for drainage, under 3 or 4ish inches of coco coir dirt, and that's covered up by some sort of a moss (it was given to me when I received an enclosure for one of my tarantulas, the previous owner was keeping toads, I figure it's frog safe moss). They've got a little rock in there to hang out on, and that plastic cup is a small tupperware thing I use because dubia nymphs and dwarf white isopods cannot climb out (The frogs have been eating heavily out of it, so they've figured it out, I was worried they wouldn't explore it). The dirt has been inoculated with dwarf white isopods mostly to keep the enclosure free of frog poo, but also for the smaller guys to scavenge (though I don't count on that as a primary food source)
In the top right corner I have a little sump pit of sorts, constructed out of the same foam, hot glued but not sealed, so water will drain into it, so I can run a drain hose in the event my divider ever leaks.
What do we think? I was thinking of putting a cheap fish in the water as a sort of miners canary to let me know if the water quality goes south
Aww he’s so cute! Thank you for being a good human.
Btw, have you seen this thing called a FrogLog? I read the guy who invented it was sad to see so many critters drowned in his pool so he built a ramp for them to escape. Pretty cool!
Most petstores sell metal thingies to lock the lid down. You can buy them online for sure.

My five foot ball python couldn't get past these.
I’m just gonna go off, this will be long as hell. It’s currently really early in the morning so sorry for any formatting/spelling.
BE WARNED: crickets stink af and even in their little bug home you can smell it from afar. Not to mention their food stinks and they die easy. Buy the smaller ones if you can, I’ve noticed they smell a lot better and don’t die as quickly.
I hope this helps! If I think of anything else I’ll add it here. Also if you have any questions don’t be afraid to ask.

From my short experience: really not enough algae to feed them, but if you have tadpole food coming within a few days, they will survive.
The containers will need to be either ventilated or wider (bigger surface of exchange water-air). And you'll need a source of new water in a close future.
Once tadpoles get out of the water they will change their diet. You'll need to either find tones of bugs/worms, or release them somewhere wet. If that's the food you bought, it's really only for tadpoles.
I have one of these:

[Amazon!](Galápagos (05346) Mossy Cave Hide, 4”, Green https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0179QK0UM/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_3PLkDb2N95Q99) It came with a chain to hang it for snakes/reptiles but it’s removable.
I already picked up a bottle of pre-hatched/hatching fruit flies from Petco to try and feed him -- they are flightless ones, and I dumped a bunch of them into his water bowl -- which is a 1 quart Tupperware filled with water and a large rock. I added coconut fiber to fill the 10 gallon tank to the edge of the Tupperware. If he is eating/doing well, we will upgrade to

Planning on leaving the bottom filled with water/small heater/filter/ hamburg filter wall/waterfall for the moisture -- according to http://www.amphibiancare.com/frogs/caresheets/graytreefrog.html this is ok/ideal as it will avoid substrate problems.
I'm a little concerned about his ability to find/eat the fruit flies. Tomorrow I will try and get some pinhead crickets to leave in a butter container, and maybe a small wax worm.
If he is not eating by tomorrow we will let him go.
Thanks for replying, I am not so sure how or where to put another filter to slow the flow down. https://www.amazon.com/Whisper-Tank-Filter-10i-BioScrubber/dp/B0002DHYF4 that is my filter, I have it about a half inch above surface level and it makes a tiny waterfall. Should I raise it or lower it? I really don't want to stress or hurt the frogs, especially the little guy. Big dude doesn't seem to care much he just avoids those pockets of water current
