Hi Christian,

A picture would help a lot. Also, 30 centimeters is too large for any tree frog, or any frog in general for that matter, did you mean 3? It would also help out if you could tell us where you got them and what common name they were sold as. Talk to you later,

Hi

Sorry you were right, my mistake they are 30mm or 3cm long....

I but them from someone who was selling everithing, a kind of people who buy every thnig and after sell the thing he don't want... because his aquarium is to full... At this time is was selling 20 reeds frog... So he don't have the real name, he forget them

So I don't have any information on they common name and I don't have the real cost...

I buy the two reeds for 10$ canadiens, In us that 6.5$ us...

Christian

I will have pics tomorrow...

Try looking into heterixalus madagascarensis...
I have one with the same description exactly, and I know that they seem to very (maybe too) available lately. Their common name is blue madagascar reed frog, and even an individual frog can change colors a variety of times, even in a day, from a dark brown to white or light blue, and they have vibrant orange feet. The size is the same as well.
I also know that most stores/dealers I have spoken with know little of these color-shifting frogs, which might explain the lack of available knowledge.
Hope that helps, and good luck.

I would definitely agree that it is a species of reed frog, which was my first impression.
