They're so cool. I'm looking for my first frog too and i seem to be swaying towards the Whites if that helps.

In my eyes, all frogs are facinating, the only thing that I'm worried about is what sort of housing they'll need (terrestrial, half water half substrate ect)

Thanks for the replies!

i agree with connor, whites tree frogs don't need a lot of water, a water dish is enough and regular misting to keep the humidity up. As these frogs hardly venture into water they need to absorb moisture from the air around them.
Just remember that most frogs are nocturnal so if you want to see them doing anything get a low wattage blue light or some led's for night time viewing. As for a terrarium the exo terra ones are fine for frogs.
