[ 27.09.24 ] coconut success!!!! he's been sleeping in here for three days now, it's perfect because it means the rain machine doesn't wake him by drenching him when it turns on and hits his usual spot :D





[ 19.09.24 ] i see all these tanks and setups on reddit and every single one of them have this cute little coconut hide with a wooden bridge, and everyone's frogs seem to love it! hops does like to bask up near the lamp, so i went hunting around on amazon to find sizes and more details about these things, and it turns out that they're bird toys! i've been looking for some kind of elevated hide to put in there to replace this ugly hammock i have and hate, and hop's does use it so it had to be something i could easily subsitute. i think this is the perfect solution - it looks way more natural, and it fits in the tank perfectly! i'm not completely convinced he's going to use the actual hide itself, he does have his favourite spots and doesn't generally hide away anywhere other than his log, but maybe in the hotter months when he wants a bit of shelter? who knows!

for now though, he seemed to enjoy the bridge the most. he did investigate the coconut a little bit, but only sat on top. we'll see! hopefully he warms up to it a little
