Good Care sheets/advanced info for Whites Tree frogs

[tracy0416]

Hi all: I'm new to frogs but not to herps. I have a snake which I am switching to a bioactive enriched enclosure. During my research process, I discovered the whites tree frog and well... fell in love.

I need to know a few things about Whites and would be most grateful for your input:

- where to find good, "advanced" care sheets for Whites. (My left brain starves for the details!)
- where to purchase them in Toronto, Ontario Canada. (reputable breeders)
- required special lighting, humdity percentage and temperature range.
- Minimum enclosure size and maximum.
- preferred substrate, plants, small trees.
other animals which can be house with them (as I hear they eat anything they can fit in thier mouths?) I'd like to do a big, (wide and tall) vivarium and care for several species at once.

Okay that should do it for now.

Feel free to email me directly too. It's all good.
Thanks a bunch! Can hardly wait to get to know some good folks here!
Sincerley,
Tracy

Hm.. sounds like you want to make a terrarium? I used to love building and having them; I might actually make one this year just for fun in an old tank I have. I collected mossy rocks, weird funguses, etc. from the woods. I used clean topsoil for a substrate, with some cypress wood chips (mulch) as an accent. I made a water area by using a rocklike water dish from a pet store, and put in some smooth polished stones so that the frogs (they were firebelly toads) could "bask" in the water.
I also added in some ferns from the woods, but they did not do too well; not sure why.
