It has been interesting getting his environment just right, since there is so little information out there. I used dumeril's as the baseline, and through research and experimentation have found out that they need quite a bit higher humidity levels than Dumeril's. I think probably they can stand about 2 degrees warmer on average as well, though I doubt that difference is gonna matter much.
I was able to see it in free last december when i was in the Lokobe forest in Madagascar:









You can check the climate data of Lokobe Nosy be to get it right. It was very humid and quite warm. If you need any info ask me.
