they are such lovely animals to add to the family! Creating enclosures are so much fun and so relaxing, I also recommend going with a bioactive setup, it makes cleaning much easier.
Hi! I loved your video. I’m going to be getting my own dumpy frog for Christmas this year. So I’m really excited to take care of them soon 🥹💚🐸.. I really want to set up a bio active enclosure for them but I was just wondering what was that layer you put over the drainage beads? It kinda looked like mesh but i wanted to double check!
@@LukeMcGuireoides Yes I got them as babies and they’re already getting so big!!! I have two of the most dumpiest babies 😭💚🐸.. I was lucky to have gotten both a boy and girl. Suki (Boy) and Mei (Girl). Suki is already croaking and it is so loud and cute 😭💚🐸
What substrate dirt did you use for your tree frog? And do they need heat of any sort? How do Isopods clean up a bioactive enclosure? And why did u out rocks at the bottom and where did you get your frog. Oh and also what plant is that. Thanks sorry I really want a white tree frog that's why lol 🐸
1. I used reptisoil! You can also use coco fiber (something to maintain humidity) 2. They do need a small heat source! I recommend a heat lamp that is 25w (recommend to get one with uvb). They do well at room temp but giving them a small basking spot doesn’t hurt at all! 3. Isopods feed off of things like animal droppings so they keep the tank clean! Also they will eat any small insects that haven’t been eaten by the frog if there are any wondering in the tank that end up dying. 4. The rocks act as a drainage layer! That way if I’m misting the tank/watering the plants water will not be sitting in the substrate and won’t cause mold or bacteria to build in the tank. 5. It’s a pothos plant!
@@evelyngonzalez901 thank you so much! And yes! I supplement with D3 about every other feeding and regular calcium when i’m not supplementing with D3! For the diet I recommend crickets, dubia roaches, and super worms (these more for a treat)! Also I recommend gut loading your feeder insects with vegetables and fruits (any scraps you have works!)
hello, bug is so cute!!!!!! me and my dad want to set up one of these tanks (including a frog lol), do you have any preferred brands/types for this stuff (like the substrate and plants and decomposers)?
hi! thank you so much :) Yes I highly recommend reptisoil or coco fiber (anything that holds humidity) as far as brands go, zoomed is always a safe option which you can find at any pet store. for plants i recommend something sturdy like pothos. you definitely don’t want to go with a plant that needs specific care that doesn’t mix well with the care for your animal. you can also go for a bromeliad plant! for a cleaning crew you can go with either isopods and springtails or both! i’d go to a local pet store maybe not a chain to try and find these or you can purchase them from online sellers. isopods can get fancy but i stick with the simple powder blue, it’s honestly your choice! if you have any other questions please let me know!
Thank you for asking! I prefer wearing gloves when I handle any frog simply because I do not want to risk transferring anything that may be on my hands to the frog. Frogs are fragile animals and absorb everything through their skin! I do it just as an extra safety measure.
That is one beautiful little dumpy love bump. Loved this relaxing ass video, too! Wonderful
Thank you so much! Haha he's adorable
very cute! im hoping to get a white's tree frog of my own soon, im hoping my enclosure looks as good as yours ^^!

this is such a calming video, thank you so much
Great video!! I love these chunks too!
Thank you so much!
Beautiful enclosure? You got it. No commentary to interrupt? You got it. No cuts that skip important parts? You got it
Great video!
Thank you so much! I really appreciate it.
Oh my goodness you have one of the prettiest and cutes whites I've seen! Do you know what "morph" he is? I'd love to get one with the same coloring:)
I noticed it's been a little while sense you set this up. How is this bioactive set up doing? 🙂
It is doing very great! Thank you so much

Yeah, you need a mesh or that garden liner weed blocker stuff. Cheers. Hope you already figured that out and got yours though :)

wow i love your aesthetically pleasing videos make more!! plus you should cohab your crested gecko and whites tree frog

@@mehve728 omg you're a life saver! Definitely subscribing and I have a 18x18x24 terrarium and plan on making it bioactive like this one! Thank you!!!
@@mehve728 oh yeah I forgot to ask, do white tree frogs need any supplements? Like calcium/D3?
@@evelyngonzalez901 thank you so much! And yes! I supplement with D3 about every other feeding and regular calcium when i’m not supplementing with D3!

What’s the purpose of elevating the surface?
what plant did you use and where did you get it?
i love this ! may i ask where the enclosure itself is from? thank you ^^
thank you! it is an exo terra enclosure (you can purchase online or in most pet stores) hope this helps!
Around how much would you say you spent for just the bioactive materials? I've been wanting to turn my whites tree from enclosure into bioactive

for plants i recommend something sturdy like pothos. you definitely don’t want to go with a plant that needs specific care that doesn’t mix well with the care for your animal. you can also go for a bromeliad plant!
for a cleaning crew you can go with either isopods and springtails or both! i’d go to a local pet store maybe not a chain to try and find these or you can purchase them from online sellers. isopods can get fancy but i stick with the simple powder blue, it’s honestly your choice!
if you have any other questions please let me know!
Why make the substrate so deep? Doesn't it just take up room?
probably for the pothos and bc frogs love to burrow!
What plant is that ?
Pothos!
@@mehve728 thanks so much and I need some help on how you prep the plant when you put it in the terrarium
@@TheTransformerskid12 I rinsed the plant with water and cleaned the roots off as well! Pretty simple, just make sure it's clean.
Why do u wear gloves if i may ask ?
