Is there a safe cleaning product to use to clean the terrarium that will not disturb or harm my frog??

I have kept Anoles with a Whites tree frog quite easily. The Whites used the standing water for his needs, the Anoles used dripping water. The humidity wasn’t really an issue as Whites don’t need it really high because they soak themselves and the dripping water (very slow drip) near the heat mat (on the outside) and the lights kept the humidity up. The Whites was awake at night and the Anoles found out of the way places to sleep and the Anoles were up during the day and the Whites was asleep somewhere. They both eat crickets,moths,etc so I didn’t have an issue and everyone seemed quite happy and healthy but it was a large reptile tank and wouldn’t suggest anything even remotely smaller than 55us gallons taller than wider. Also the Whites doesn’t eat everything despite what people say. He never showed any interest in eating the Anoles and I have found them quite scared of locusts and large moths.

Don’t put lizards in with them. It’s too hard to meet all needs of each animals and also keep them all safe.

I know absoulutley nothing about dumpy frogs except for what I just read and a care sheet at the petstore. I was wondering…

The care sheet from Petsmart (my area has a pretty good one.) said you could keep long tailed lizards and anoles with them. After reading you can’t put other kinds of frogs in- I’m starting to doubt.

Any advice appreciated.

Hi,

Ive had two whites for a LONG time now. I use plants and have had no problems with them ever. It is a little tricky to pick plants that need a similar environment to what the frogs need, but I have a fern, a dwarf banana tree and a grape vine that are all thriving in the same tank as my frogs. The love to climb to the top of the tank, and using real plants and dirt makes maintaining a good relative humidity fairly easy. The only draw back that the real plants have is that they provide a place for your crickets to hide, and there is always one that never gets eaten and chirps its way through the night and day. As for where to get them, you can get them at petsmart or Petco, or online at kingsnake.com. You can handle them, they are quite robust, I am a teacher and I enjoy bringing them into my classroom every now and then. Also know that dumpy’s are mostly nocturnal, and kinda lazy, but beautiful and easy to care for. Enjoy ur new pets!

I bought an adult “dumpy” many years ago, it was the house pet of a pet shop in Freeport L.I. Quite large she had beatuful gold rimmed eyes. I am a senior citizen but have never outgrown my love of animals. I always research thoroughly before purchasing one. Handling of the frogs is a mistake. Have made notes and a list of items from this site. Sold my reptile equipment years ago but will not hesitate to buy whatever is needed to make couple of “dumpy`s happy. Wondering if real plants (small ficus) are o.k. Used them years ago for large chameleon. Any advice appreciated also where to purchase the animals as they seem to be in short supply. Thanks
