Frogs for beginners

[Rogue5861]

Is that just a normal aquarium fluro?

Yep, or a normal daylight fluro. Just need to make sure its a 6500k. Sylvannia do a glow-lux (plant light) fluro that are reasonably cheap (i think around $15), no need to buy a uvb.

And a lot cheaper than a UV light. So all I need is a water area, land area, hiding places and plants? And of course, the frogs.

Yep. I have hides placed on the land and on the edge of the water so they can stay wet and hidden if they please.

No worries What plants would you recommend for spotted marsh frogs?

 

[Rogue5861]

I have a maidenhair fern and some baby tears in mine. Pretty much any indoor plants should grow fine in there.

I just went to bunnings and looked at their "shadey places" range of plants, only needing low light makes them nice an easy to keep alive.

why no one mention green tree frogs, great beginner frogs

 

[Tyl3r]

Because I don't think they can live in the enclosure listed in the first post by me. What are there requirements hnn17?
