What should you know?

They are amphibians.
They eat bugs.
Must remain humid.

I give mine a basking spot by using a uvb bulb and a perch up high usually around 90F. Ambient in the low to mid 80's humidity around 65-75%. Yes put a water bowl. I've kept several species of frogs but whites are by far my favorite. They are fat, active and look to damn cute.

That you absolutely want one.
Please don't get it just because.

I do not know you personally, but it seems as if you have acquired quite a few animals recently (just by the posts you have posted).
Reptiles are great, and I am defiantly guilty of looking at the classifieds at least once a day- but there is a point at which you need to stop, step back assess your desires, and your actual ability to care for every one of the animals.
