finally they moved...

They were too small to live in a tank, so I kept them in a shoebox for a while. Few days ago I moved them into the tank, and they seem happy. One thing interesting me is that each individual seems having a favorite spot, they always go back to the same place resting.

They usually stay around tropical pitcher plant and Neoregelia (bromeliad) and hardly come close to Cryptanthus (earth star, also bromeliad), maybe leaves of Cryptanthus are too stiff for frogs. The plant in picture is Neoregelia ampullacea.

nice picture. How long did you keep them in shoeboxes?

approx. 50 days.

They were a little over 1/2 inch when I got them, and after heavily fed (I kept food with them 24/7), the largest one is 1 inch now.
