One of the babies was sleeping on the glass occasionally, I figured out that he was being caught out by the lights (on a timer) and just tucking in wherever he is when they come on. If I put a tea towel to cover the front and turn off the lights for five mintes, (it is not dark cause the other tank lights are on) he moves. I think he is too scared to move if I dont do this.
But maybe she just likes it there?

My (as yet unidentified) treefrog regularly roosts on the glass, while the two green treefrogs usually choose somewhere under cover. it's down to the individual, I guess, so no, don't worry.

Its normal behaviour for Whites to bask at the very least occasionally under uv lighting as they would be naturally exposed to it in the wild by the mere fact they are arboreal, and bare in mind that even if they hide out of direct sun in the mid day, uv goes through leaves.

Sadly, the milk frogs weren't lined up hilariously on the top pole like they were on Saturday, but here's a pic of what they were doing today
   Frogs like Whites and Amazonian Milks are canopy dwelling frogs, in the wild they'd be exposed to high tempertures and high levels of UVB daily P.S: That's a megaray on the right directed through the mesh and a 10% reptisun
