I got two frogs from petsmart.. a whites tree frog and another tree frog.. not sure what kind, but they were in the same terrarium. The whites frog I got for free because it had been very lethargic and seemed sick, but it was still eating. The other tree frog was in good health.

I have a 25 gallon tall terrarium, temp ranges from 78-88 (it gets very hot here during the day). Humidity is between 60 and 80 on the hydrometer I have. There is plenty of water, plants, and dirt/moss in the terrarium.

It has been a week since i have had the frogs, and both of these frogs are acting VERY lethargic, I don't think they even move much during the night because I wake up and find them in the same spot the next morning. They look like they are dead, but when I lightly touch one it starts to look like it's breathing again.

Am I doing something wrong? Did the whites tree frog have a serious illness and give it to the other frog? Or is this some form of heavy sleeping?
