New WTFs

Hello all,

I was given 2 white's tree frogs last night.

And this morning I I want to take them out of thier tank and clean it. (lots of slime on the corner where one of them spends most of its time.) I usually clean my turtle and snake tanks out with white vinager then give it a good rinse, and let it air out for an hour or so. Is this appropriate for the frogs?

Also, they don't seem to have been cared for extreamly well. They have 2 pretty large water sources, a 10 by 4 inch peice of bark, and a small plastic plant. There is also moss on the bottom of the tank. (this has to come out, it looks like its bad) I'm assuming that they need some climbing material and some hides. What about a background?

There are 2 dials for the temp and humidity, that do seem to work. So that is nice. What are the best temps and humidity for these little guys?

I think thats it for now, thanks to all that respond in advance.

just make sure you rinse off the vinigar very well. you don't need a background if you don't want one. Good temps and humidity is 65-82 degrees and 40-70% humidity. usually room temp. works fine and giving the tank a good spray twice a day works well too.
