Theloderma corticale, the Vietnamese mossy frog, comes from the rainforests of northern Vietnam and southern China. Its bumpy, moss-like skin gives it very good camouflage. It is nocturnal and spends a lot of time in the water. Our animals are captive-bred.

Care
One or two frogs need a terrarium of at least 60 × 45 × 45 cm with 70–90 % humidity. At least 60 % of the floor should be water about 8 cm deep, filtered constantly and changed by 25–50 % every one to two weeks. Feed insects such as crickets 1–2 times a week, dusted with calcium and vitamins. More in our wiki article on Theloderma corticale care and breeding.
