    Also, quick note--if you use an undertank heater, don't put it at the BOTTOM of the tank! If they get too hot, they like to bury themselves, which is confusing to them if it gets hotter the lower they go! I've seen frogs cook themselves! Put heat on the side of the enclosure at least!

    Not confusing at all. In wild heat comes from above. So if its hot, they burrow to get out of it.

    As long as room temp is 80-85 your fine no need for other heat.

    That's true, but for people who want a pet frog but have a house that stays 70-75, a little supplemental heat is good to have, but never put it beneath the enclosure!

    Also if you were to feed crickets its best to have a lid as well.
