Default Woohoo! Got my RETF's today
So I finally decided that the plants had enough time to get semi-rooted in, and that my patience had run thin. So I went to the shop to just get some crickets in order to start breeding those, but was too-easily talked into getting the frogs at the same time.(Thanks to my neighbor )

So, they seem to not be too stressed out. They turned dark for about 5 minutes when they were put into the tank, but went back to normal soon after. They spent about 15 minutes checking out the place and hopping from branch to branch before settling in and promptly going to sleep. (I like their style)

Ill hopefully get some pics at the beggining of next week.

Thats awsome man. Im probably close to a year out from getting my first frogs with all the hoops Ive gotta JUMP through. Cant wait for that feeling though. So far im between Mossy frogs or Costa Rican G&B's leaning towards Mossys though.

Im still trying to find a good time to take pictures. They are really hard to find during the day because they blend so well with the leaves. Its pretty neat watching them at night though. The night light makes the frogs and the leaves look bright red. Its really cool to watch them stalk their prey though...

Alright I managed to get one decent pic. We just got a new camera so Im still working on figuring that one out. Hopefully I can get some more quality pictures. Plus I have to either look through the acrylic or the small open part on top ment for the aquarium light.

They arent really that hard to keep relatively speaking. Just keep them fed, keep things clean, and try not to stress them out.
