Hi, i've had my male horned frog since may 06 when he was the size of a quarter, he is now 3 inches. In most care sheet i've looked at it says to keep the substrate moist but not wet...so i use aquarium gravel filled with water, then place natural peat pots borken up (as leaves) on top of the water/gravel. The peat "leaves" stay moist but not wet, however the frog pushes the asides and emmerses himself into the water/gravel. I mist the terrarium daily and there is a philodenron spp. in with it so the humidity is ok...just wondering if this is common or if anyone can see a problem with this?
