I would say....2-3 inches of water in the bottom with mabye a filter and the fill the rest of the enloser with fake plants and branches. Make sure if the tree frog falls in the it gan get out with by crawling up the fake plants. thats all the advice i know of the top of my head...... i owuld google it though just to see how it should be kept.....good luck ;P

Tree frogs in general do not need a pool of water, unless you are breeding them. Being tree frogs they need to be able to climb and perch/hide as if they are in a tree. Humidity is important to keep them from drying out. I personally would mist their enclose at least once a day, maybe twice, depending on the humidity where you live.

The water at the bottom is not for them to swim in..... just so that if they fall down while hunting or just clambering about they do not get hurt. I you have soil or sumthing liek that thier they may get hurt!:eek:
