Absolutely love this video and appreciate how unedited it is. Shows real life with the dogs being dogs, the frogs jumping around, and the start-to-finish of setting up this bioactive terrarium. Learned a lot and will be checking out some of these products!
We live in Delaware.. a few years ago a little Delaware grey tree frog made the very long journey from the river behind our house to our front flower bed. If I went outside he would come out and sit on the step with me…we had many profound conversations. When hubby cut the grass the frog would sit on top of the bricks edging the bed and watch…I do mean watch…froggy would turn back and forth as Kacz changed directions. He was a real joy. One day he disappeared. I like to think he made the long journey back to river…such a little guy…and participated in the production of many tadpoles. Realistically, he may have been dinner for something, but I prefer to believe he’s still out there in a tree singing to his lady love.
Wow, you just introduced two different subjects that one doesn’t hear about every day: terrariums for Gray or Green Tree Frogs, and Resurrection Fern! There are loud, cute and apparently prolific Gray Tree Frogs around our farmhouse, on the heels of weekly summer storms, so I am presently planning to create a transition habitat for their tadpoles discovered in a water feature container. It brings back great childhood memories of raising tadpoles in little habitats with water, rocks, moss, plants, within my mom’s glass baking dishes. Thanks, from The Piedmont of North Carolina. p. s. Now I am really on the lookout for Resurrection Moss, such a cool plant, that we once had in an old tree at our coastal N. C. house, transplanted from a family cemetery in Kingstree, S. C.
@@TheBioDudeJoshHalter Perhaps work together on the "challenge" I proposed to him. Creating a terrarium using edible plants. A lot of people seemed to like that idea. Not sure if he'll do it though.
He shouldn't. if so, Serpa should do all the work and let the BioDude just sit in the background. Maybe hand him a few pieces of cork bark or hold his water bottle.
@Super Satanski I try lol. Its tough, running this size business and having a personal life while making the time for these videos + budgeting for them can be challenging. Have some great content coming in Feb!
Hello, I am a Pennsylvania herping channel and I heard you say that you were from PA. I was happy to hear that. My channel focuses on the frogs and toads specifically from PA and when you had gray tree frog in the title it caught my eye. On my channel I go herping and showcase my pets who are ambassadors for their species. I am pursuing a herpetology degree to research frogs and toads, and one of the frogs I want to study is the eastern gray tree frog. I was very impressed with the knowledge you have of the native tree frogs and that looks to be a good setup for at least one tree frog. I must say that more of the information and the setup would accommodate a green tree frog more so than the gray. Grays at least from the Northeast hide in the cracks of trees away from the heat so the temperature above 80-82 in captivity could be harmful. I say this only about the gray not the green because the gray tree frogs native range ends in Virginia and it is a more cold hardy frog rather than heat tolerant. I believe you are very knowledgeable and I am subscribed to you because you are very great at what you do. As I said maybe you have seen grays on leaves in other places but where I have found them I haven't seen them on the leaves. My grays (4) are soon to hibernate and then will live in a 125 gallon that's bioactive. I only keep native or naturalized plants for my native species, but you have some great ideas for a setup and placement for an enclosure. I also wanted to say the Giant North American Millipede will be the major component of my clean up crew as opposed to isopods. Just thought you would find that interesting. Anyways, great job on the video and I can't wait to see what you show us next. Congratulations on your business!
Thank you for making this video it was fun and entertaining while also very educational. I now understand visually what I will be getting in my kit and how to set it up.
Glad I found your channel, trying to figure out a frog tank for my son, I’ve been a fish hobbyist my whole life so I’m scratching my head on the frogs! This was super helpful and informative
I didn’t even know this. Im glad I went about it the way I did though . Your information is worth so much to me. That I can’t explain. I can learn as slow as I need to. 🎉 your The Bio Dude 🫶🏼🤙🏼✌🏼
Again, I just watched this as a followup to another vid. You deserve a LOT more views and subs. Fantastic job teaching AND subtly filling in the blanks. Eleventeen stars!
Hey there! Awesome! I will link the kits here for you! - www.thebiodude.com/collections/bioactive-frog-terrarium-kits/products/gray-green-tree-frog-habitat-kit
I breed white lip green tree frogs here in tropical far north Australia. We just keep them in green houses out on the back patio as its warm all year round. No need for heating. Interesting to see all the things going in. We just out in some lava rocks as the base, home grown compost above then some sugar cane mulch. Then finally tropical plants like caladiums, cordalynes etc. with drift wood. Last breeding cycle with 1 female got 800 plus tadpoles.
I love my Gray! Jean (Xmen ref ftw) will actually sing to me if I sing back. So vocal with so much personality for these little guys. Thanks for the video of the set up. I cant wait to upgrade her to her new enclosure.
first ever video of watched on bio tanks, and it seems to have all i need in it and more, ive got 3 magnificent green tree froglets and they need a bigger place to call home, so im building one from the ground up, wish I could get my gear from you but I'm on the other side of earth.
there was one of these in my kitchen last night not even kidding i have no idea how it got into the house but it was so cool! we released it near a pond i hope he has a good life! ( i live in ontario)
That frog? That's crazy cuz they're not native to here. The only tree frogs we have in ontario are cope grays tree frogs. Also spring peepers (which are treefrog like)
@@jeffsproule3197 i had never seen one before my brother said it looked like someones pet we grew up here in the creeks and valleys and ravines catching snakes and frogs but never encountered one of these before. as i say it was literally on the ground in my kitchen i have no idea how long it was in here or how it got in but i released it near some big trees near a big pond close to our house right before the lightning and thunder came down a few weeks back!
Thats awesome! Check these out from The Dudes Blog page! - www.thebiodude.com/blogs/reptile-and-amphibian-caresheets-with-cited-veterinary-and-herpetology-sources/introduction-to-uvb-and-reptiles-part-1 www.thebiodude.com/blogs/reptile-and-amphibian-caresheets-with-cited-veterinary-and-herpetology-sources/introduction-to-uvb-part-2
Hey Kasie, I will link the Kit that the Dude used here! If you have any questions please reach out to customercare@thebiodude.com and the team can get you situated! www.thebiodude.com/products/gray-green-tree-frog-habitat-kit Hope this helps!
Have you ever done a grow tent setup? I am wanting to build one with a waterfall, pond, banana plants real soil for plants to grow in with a mister. That would be the best setup.
This Is So cool and I learned alot... hopefully the drawing isn't over as I would love to do this for my Grey Tree frogs... They seem so sad in the housing i have them in Now.. But I absolutely Adore when they sing back and forth with me :)
I have been working/w a ten G tank for a little over a year. The purpose is to learn how to grow a few plants. Several months ago I added a few native isopods to it. I can no longer keep any plants alive because they have over populated and are eating everything in sight. Soon baby toads will be available so this should be solved then. Actually it really won't be solved till I move to the larger tank which I have. Using aquariums is awkward. If I place it up higher than a normal aquarium stand makes them so that you can view them better then it is difficult to reach the bottom of the tank without using something to stand on. But just a word of warning about the isopods eating plants if you don't have a predator in the tank to keep their population in check.
Hi! I loved the video, it was incredibly helpful since I’m trying to get my first tree frog. I have a quick question we’re exactly does one find a bio shot like yours I’m not entirely sure what to look for. Thank you!
thanks for ur video very help ful I'm doing yellow sunglasses tree frogs and placing an oder some of ir stuff is sold out but found other place to similar products thanks again
you should put a link or affiliate link to your store so we can jsut pick off all the stuff you are using. Like what is the acorn/durian thingy you put during the mosses setup in this video? I saw the package glow something and i have no idea what it is? Let me know.
I can not wait to get one of these!! I won’t get my frog without one!! ♥️ Are they made in America? Texas owned is good but Made in America would be even better
Do you sell iso pods and spring tails on your site, ? And how long until you get spag moss back in stock!!! I’m trying to buy all my stuff from the dude!
He does have cleanup crew, but he it seemed like he doesn't ship during the colder weather. Most likely so they don't die in shipping. You can sign up with your email to see when they come back in stock.
Question.. how often do they call? Just during breeding season or all the time? Is it just the male that calls with this species or does the female also call? I have 5 different species of dart frogs with only males that call. Some species of female darts will call, but most do not. And these frogs that have made their home in my pond are soooo loud, i hope they dont call all the time.. lol
isopods mostly go after dead leafs, rotting bark, and lichens. I believe springtails are for the mold, discarded food (if feeding fruits) and rotting matter. it is possible to go just isopods, but having both is just helpful for the whole cycle.
Hey there Sheryl! with regular maintenance and upkeep they can last for QUITE the time! Mostly it is spot cleaning the excess that the clean up crews have not gotten to and wiping the glass of water spots. We have some enclosures at the store that have been going for 10 years! i will link here for you! - ruclips.net/video/vaWOqzEbfyE/видео.html
I have the worst luck with moss... Okay, so not "luck" so much as I'm just terrible at keeping it alive. When you hang it from a high branch like that, how often do you spray it to keep it alive? I'm not sure if I'm over watering or under watering. TIA!
super informative video with actual tools normal people can use the only thing is, did you already check your plants for parasites/root rot/fertiliser beads beforehand?
Hey there Cindy! in a shaded area not directly underneath the heating element, but where the animal would bask on a regular basis,hope this helps please let us know if you have any further questions! Temperatures need to stay around room temperature at all times, humidity spikes are alright but around 40-70 % spike is best. Hope this helps!!
Could you use some of the same items in this set up for a Mexican waxy tree frog? I want to make my guy as happy as possible and any recommendations would be awesome
I’m a little confused about the UVB part. You said not to use the CFL uvb bulbs but then recommended the Reptile 100 and ReptiSun 5.0. I thought those were both CFL bulbs? So on small tanks like that where you can’t have a large tube light, wouldn’t CFL style bulbs be your only option?
Oh my goodness I have a nano combo dome and somehow never thought to put an LED in it! I have a basking light and in the winter, a red light for heat. I keep the enclosure under my grow lights for my plants. I just upgraded to an ExoTerra 18x18x24 - I have an 8 month old anole that I found (I live in Chicago!) and when he's mature, I'm getting him some lady friends. Would the nano combo dome work for that size, with an LED and a basking spot? How can I keep it warm in the winter?
Hi Josh, Thank You so much for this video. Recently, an elderly gentleman passed away and his family donated his green & grey tree frogs and an Anole to our family. His family told me all 3 of them were cohabitating in this little 10 gallon aquarium that they were in when we picked them up. Should I leave them together or is it mandatory that I separate the 2 frogs from the Anole? Thank You for the help. :)
Anoles have almost the same exact diet as the frogs, and neither are territorial, they should be fine together. Especially considering the size of the tank
We do have a kit designed specifically for Whites Tree Frogs available on our website! It provides recommended decor to further accommodate their size!
Thank you so much This was amazing and quite informative He's so cute to jump in your hair maybe you should put some of that in there Just kidding anyway I'm trying to subscribe to you channel but I can't see that option on this particular video but I will be back I am looking at this for my middle granddaughter who is 7 turning 8 and just in love with animals of any type but she loves these little green creatures and I happen to have one turn up on my back porch patio table! Hence the research on these little guys and setting something up for her birthday on July 5th 🤗🐸❤️🐸
So I didn't use any of that stuff and I just have frogs randomly move into my bathroom and my kitchen and live there. I guess they aren't getting proper light there at all, because no windows, but I haven't changed anything and they stay a long time lol.
Okay Josh… I came across this baby one eyed green tree frog in my backyard over a month ago and I have seen him quite often since then and part of me wants to take him inside and set up an aquarium… What do you think?
I want you to know that I play a drinking game while watching your videos Every time you say "let's rock and roll" or any variation of that phrase, I take a sip of my drink I'm having a wonderful time
im building a terrarium for my grey tree frog that i caught outside. hes super friendly and not skittish in the slightest. I did not know about testing for fungus tho and am curious how to do that. I also have a Cuban tree frog I rescued from my job, the lawn and garden section of Walmart.. he came in on plants cause I know we don't have Cubans in Virginia. The whole reason I am building a terrarium for the grey tree frog is even tho he is roughly the same size as the Cuban, I read the Cubans eat other frogs so its time to separate.
i have a really small gray tree frog and he is only the size of a penny right now, i need advice on the best way to get him in and out of the tank for cleaning
I have a tree frog but I don’t know what type I find it in my bathroom it’s still a baby I was wondering do you have any advice what can I use as a habitat
What if where I live my room temperature reaches to 80 to 87 degrees, would I need a heat source for hot spot or only during the winter season? Please and thank you!
I enjoy hearing the dogs mauling each other in the background 😂
Rumpus play time is always the best time!
That’s my life. Dogs happy in the background and me trying to work…..I love this.
Absolutely love this video and appreciate how unedited it is. Shows real life with the dogs being dogs, the frogs jumping around, and the start-to-finish of setting up this bioactive terrarium. Learned a lot and will be checking out some of these products!

I hope you do, it'd be awesome to see a build built by you two, and interesting to see how you work together.

Love the African Mask alocasia, dwarf hybrid means it will never get as massive as normal alocasia. Great plant choices
Great job 👍 I'm going to be rehousing my grey tree frogs and I gained some knowledge from your video. ✌
wow, I think you need a bigger tank with all the stuff you wanted to cram into it. lots of advice that I'll be pondering on when i make my riparium.

You can actually find them as far north as Indiana/Ohio/Kentucky/Tennessee. I have a good little populace in my neighbor's run-down pool.
Have you ever done a grow tent setup? I am wanting to build one with a waterfall, pond, banana plants real soil for plants to grow in with a mister. That would be the best setup.
Hey there! look into Hydroponics as a more effective option for that! Hope that helps!!
Do you sell this as a kit online? I have 7 gray tree frog tadpoles and I will soon be needing a proper environment for them.
How are they doing now? Sorry just curious if you don’t mind!
This Is So cool and I learned alot... hopefully the drawing isn't over as I would love to do this for my Grey Tree frogs... They seem so sad in the housing i have them in Now.. But I absolutely Adore when they sing back and forth with me :)
HE HAS A DOG CALLED PADFOOT! I LOVE HIM!
awesome bio build!!! thanks for the demo!!!🙂👍👍🤙✌🤞❤
Thanks for watching!
What was the plant list you had for this tank? I absolutely loved them!
I have been working/w a ten G tank for a little over a year. The purpose is to learn how to grow a few plants. Several months ago I added a few native isopods to it.

Same I’m trying to get a gray tree frog
I'm going to be honest, while you are very educational your dogs really stole the show
They ALWAYS do!
Keep the great videos coming! I hope I don't offend you but you remind me sooo much of "Stewart" from the big bang theory series 😂😂
thanks for ur video very help ful I'm doing yellow sunglasses tree frogs and placing an oder some of ir stuff is sold out but found other place to similar products thanks again
Hi! Could You do a tutorial about Fire Skink Bioactive Enclosure? Best regards!
rockin and rollin
Those dogs in the back 😂
you should put a link or affiliate link to your store so we can jsut pick off all the stuff you are using.
Like what is the acorn/durian thingy you put during the mosses setup in this video? I saw the package glow something and i have no idea what it is? Let me know.
I can not wait to get one of these!! I won’t get my frog without one!! ♥️ Are they made in America? Texas owned is good but Made in America would be even better
Brendyn Molnar bruh she’s saying that it’s good that the store is in texas but is wondering if the materials are made in america
Brendyn Molnar I’m from Texas and I’m in the United States Army I’m well aware of all 50 of the states. 🤦🏽♀️ you make me wonder about society
Do you sell iso pods and spring tails on your site, ?
And how long until you get spag moss back in stock!!! I’m trying to buy all my stuff from the dude!
He does have cleanup crew, but he it seemed like he doesn't ship during the colder weather. Most likely so they don't die in shipping. You can sign up with your email to see when they come back in stock.
You got me hooked on bio tanku
Question.. how often do they call? Just during breeding season or all the time? Is it just the male that calls with this species or does the female also call? I have 5 different species of dart frogs with only males that call. Some species of female darts will call, but most do not. And these frogs that have made their home in my pond are soooo loud, i hope they dont call all the time.. lol
I have seen and caught them in Tennessee just info enjoyed the video
Awwsome video. Would this setup work for a Whites tree frog? What changes would be needed?
Hey hey! the dude has a whites tree set up video! i shall link it here! - ruclips.net/video/LntppD_xtR4/видео.html
Do I need both isopods and springtails for my frog terrarium or can start off with just isopods?
isopods mostly go after dead leafs, rotting bark, and lichens. I believe springtails are for the mold, discarded food (if feeding fruits) and rotting matter. it is possible to go just isopods, but having both is just helpful for the whole cycle.
AWESOME Video...question... how do you clean the Bio Active Exo-terrarium? Self-Cleaning/Self-Maintaining... for how long??
Hey there Sheryl! with regular maintenance and upkeep they can last for QUITE the time! Mostly it is spot cleaning the excess that the clean up crews have not gotten to and wiping the glass of water spots. We have some enclosures at the store that have been going for 10 years! i will link here for you! - ruclips.net/video/vaWOqzEbfyE/видео.html

Melissa P. E. Same! I cannot keep moss alive for anything!
The secret is to use a UVB light, and let the moss dry before watering! Works for me!
Josh can you make a Fish scale gecko or northern spiny tailed gecko setup?
super informative video with actual tools normal people can use
the only thing is, did you already check your plants for parasites/root rot/fertiliser beads beforehand?
Great video 👍🏻
Thanks 👍
Another great video!
Thanks for such a great video. Where do you place the ends of a combo thermometer? What is best heat and humidity levels during day and during night?
Hey there Cindy! in a shaded area not directly underneath the heating element, but where the animal would bask on a regular basis,hope this helps please let us know if you have any further questions! Temperatures need to stay around room temperature at all times, humidity spikes are alright but around 40-70 % spike is best. Hope this helps!!
Is it possible to add springtails and isopods to an existing terrarium? Also, how do you add more leaf litter once everything is assembled?
Could you use some of the same items in this set up for a Mexican waxy tree frog? I want to make my guy as happy as possible and any recommendations would be awesome
My Hyla cinerea are all dark colored. Not green. Any ideas? Big bioactive vivarium, live plants, good feeding. Humidy about 70-80%
I want a frog so I've been watching a lot of videos about frogs and doing research about the type of frog I want so I can prepare
We LOVE all frogs here at The Bio Dude! If you have any questions about frog husbandry, we’re always happy to help.
@@TheBioDudeJoshHalter I was wondering would a red heat bulb be fine for a green tree frog
I’m a little confused about the UVB part. You said not to use the CFL uvb bulbs but then recommended the Reptile 100 and ReptiSun 5.0. I thought those were both CFL bulbs? So on small tanks like that where you can’t have a large tube light, wouldn’t CFL style bulbs be your only option?
Great build, I was actually thinking of making a bioactive anole tank but if I win this raffle, I'll be great.
Oh my goodness I have a nano combo dome and somehow never thought to put an LED in it! I have a basking light and in the winter, a red light for heat. I keep the enclosure under my grow lights for my plants. I just upgraded to an ExoTerra 18x18x24 - I have an 8 month old anole that I found (I live in Chicago!) and when he's mature, I'm getting him some lady friends. Would the nano combo dome work for that size, with an LED and a basking spot? How can I keep it warm in the winter?
Hi Josh, Thank You so much for this video. Recently, an elderly gentleman passed away and his family donated his green & grey tree frogs and an Anole to our family. His family told me all 3 of them were cohabitating in this little 10 gallon aquarium that they were in when we picked them up. Should I leave them together or is it mandatory that I separate the 2 frogs from the Anole? Thank You for the help. :)
Anoles have almost the same exact diet as the frogs, and neither are territorial, they should be fine together. Especially considering the size of the tank
Do you use smaller species of earthworms as a cleanup crew?
And would you suggest a home composer for cultivating your crews?
Do any of your already established bio active enclosures work well with pink tongue skinks? Like the blue tongue one + more climbing?
Is this suitable for WTFs also? And what other size terrarium can this kit be used for?
We do have a kit designed specifically for Whites Tree Frogs available on our website! It provides recommended decor to further accommodate their size!
Thank you so much This was amazing and quite informative He's so cute to jump in your hair maybe you should put some of that in there Just kidding anyway I'm trying to subscribe to you channel but I can't see that option on this particular video but I will be back I am looking at this for my middle granddaughter who is 7 turning 8 and just in love with animals of any type but she loves these little green creatures and I happen to have one turn up on my back porch patio table! Hence the research on these little guys and setting something up for her birthday on July 5th 🤗🐸❤️🐸
Hey there! love it! please reach out to our customercare@thebiodude.com care team so we can get you set up with a kit for one for your grandbaby!
So I didn't use any of that stuff and I just have frogs randomly move into my bathroom and my kitchen and live there. I guess they aren't getting proper light there at all, because no windows, but I haven't changed anything and they stay a long time lol.
i keep my wee grays in something very plain because they literally live on my porch railing, a plug and roof of the porch. 🖤🤟🏼🐌🦙

Can you please have your website sell to customers in Vancouver Canada? Please and thank you :)
Hi I love frogs what kind of frog is the green one at the beginning ??
Hi. I'm new at this. Please be kind. Would this be appropriate for Whites Tree Frogs? Thanks.
what do u think about my tank? needs kore work or its all gucci?
Okay Josh… I came across this baby one eyed green tree frog in my backyard over a month ago and I have seen him quite often since then and part of me wants to take him inside and set up an aquarium… What do you think?
Hes livin his best life outside :)
How do you test them for the fungus
I want you to know that I play a drinking game while watching your videos
Every time you say "let's rock and roll" or any variation of that phrase, I take a sip of my drink
I'm having a wonderful time
What is your opinion on a converted 10 g fish tank made vertical with a conversion kit
im building a terrarium for my grey tree frog that i caught outside. hes super friendly and not skittish in the slightest. I did not know about testing for fungus tho and am curious how to do that. I also have a Cuban tree frog I rescued from my job, the lawn and garden section of Walmart.. he came in on plants cause I know we don't have Cubans in Virginia. The whole reason I am building a terrarium for the grey tree frog is even tho he is roughly the same size as the Cuban, I read the Cubans eat other frogs so its time to separate.
Never have you used full spectrum with t5 uvb at a vertical? I want to set it up beautifully like your hands down love it all.
i have a really small gray tree frog and he is only the size of a penny right now, i need advice on the best way to get him in and out of the tank for cleaning
you could get a deli cup, or cleaned bottle with a lid (just make sure it has some holes) to keep them in while you clean.
Updated paludarium videooooo!
I have a tree frog but I don’t know what type I find it in my bathroom it’s still a baby I was wondering do you have any advice what can I use as a habitat
What if where I live my room temperature reaches to 80 to 87 degrees, would I need a heat source for hot spot or only during the winter season? Please and thank you!
Definitely.
