Recommended Vivarium Size: A 10 gallon aquarium or similarly sized plastic enclosure is suitable for young Solomon Island Leaf Frogs, but Josh's Frogs recommends a 40B or 24x18x18 Vivarium for 1-3 leaf litter frogs. Please read our how-to guides on setting up enclosures for Adult and Juvenile SILFS for more information. Also, make sure to watch our video on Housing Solomon Island Leaf Frogs!

Temperature: Ceratobatrachus guentheri can tolerate a temperature range of 70 F to 85 F, but prefer temperatures in the upper 70s. Temperatures over 90F are dangerous, and can quickly prove fatal for Solomon Island Leaf Frogs.

Humidity: Like many tropical frogs, Solomon Isle Leaf Frogs prefer a humidity range of 50 – 70%, but can tolerate humidity down to 30% for short periods of time if the frogs have access to water. Very low humidity levels, especially without access to water, can quickly be fatal.

Size: Adult female SILFs are larger, measuring in at up to approximately 3.5 inches. Male Ceratobatrachus guentheri are a bit smaller, averaging about 2.5 inches at maturity. All of the Solomon Island Leaf Frog froglets Josh's Frogs sells are well started juveniles, and measure approximately 3/4” long. Check out our Article on Solomon Island Leaf Frog Size to see pictures of SILFs at different ages.

Age: Ceratobatrachus guentheri is capable of living well over 5 years in captivity under ideal conditions. Maximum potential lifespan of Solomon Island Leaf Frogs is unknown, as there are not that many hobbyists working with them in captivity. All SILFs for sale at Josh's Frogs are well started juveniles, and are 2-3 months old.

Feeding: Solomon Island Leaf Frogs can take surprisingly large foods. All of the SILFs Josh's Frogs sells will readily eat small (~1/4") crickets. All feeder insects should be dusted with a vitamin/mineral supplement. Want to know more about feeding SILFs? Check out our video on Feeding Solomon Island Leaf Frogs! For a wide selection of feeder insects for sale, please visit our Feeder Insects for Sale page.

Color/Pattern: A very variable leaf litter frog, Ceratobatrachus guentheri are born in a multitude of colors. Even siblings can look completely different from each other! The base color can range from tan to yellow, orange, and even lime green in some individuals. Spots can be visible in some individual SILFS, but generally are not present in any significant numbers, if at all. Some frog breeders have attempted to line breed SILFs by color, in an attempt to create more consistantly colored offspring. Josh's Frogs does not recommend, support, or endorse line breeding as we believe this leads to weaker captive animals and nature has done a wonderful job of creating an amazing variation in color and pattern already.
