I use sphagnum moss in my frog tank. Its the kind that comes in a dirt like form.

I would suggest you using sheet moss, like live moss from the woods, just make sure it dont have chemicals on it, nor any big bugs. I say this because treefrogs like to lunge at food ya know, and if they lunge and I've seen frogs choke on food and substrate :( Live moss looks nice and it helps degrade poops. I'm sure someone will bash this post but its all personal preferenceand belifs :)
