My set up is for two green tree frogs it is a 2 ft tank with gravel sloped so that one side has water, and the other is land, I use an aquarium heater which is the easiest way to heat a tank, some climbing logs a few plants for cover a fake log for them to rest in and a fake background, plus a uv light ontop of the mesh like cover thats more like metal with lots of holes in it. They seem to love it and are always moving around at night and sleep on the backgound and logs throguhout the day. make sure that if you get sticks from under a gum tree or something outside to wash it out and soak it for a day or so.

the way I set up mine is probly the easy way but if you have the time and money then seting up the tank the way nato810 has explained is probly going to look better when finished.

My GTF set up in almost the same fashion.
