I couldnt tell you mantha, i know in my whites it common or them to have white spots, but i dont know much about asians (other than theyre beautiful!!!) could it maybe be a fungus or something? I'd monitor it over the next couple of days and call a vet if it changes in size?

what is your set up then? If its wrong then it may likely be the cause. Frogs do have to be clean. As i say, Whites develop white spots with age, so it may be the same but ive never seen an asian with them. Try to take photos

also, there are 2 types of asian tree frog (except the wallaces which looks completely different) the fourlined, and the spotted! post some pictures and we'll see if we can identify it! if it is the spotted then it could sort everything! i;d take him off your hands, but ive also just got 4 adult cresties so i think the OH would kill me!
