I wonder if anyone can offer some opinions. I have a pair of RETF, living in an XL exo-terra tank. They are unsexed, but one is noticably larger than another (they were bought as unsexed juveniles). The tank is fully planted and they have lived in there quite happily for a year or so now, with UV lighting during the day and a diet of crickets, locusts, and occasional other things.

Today, the larger of the two frogs is up and about, during the day - something I have never seen before. He seems determined to climb as high as he can, and is constantly on the move. Outwardly, he looks healthy enough ... I can't see any lumps, bumps, or abnormalities, and he is a plump, healthy little frog. What could account for his odd behaviour - should I be worried? What could cause this?

sounds like he is just a happy little busy fellah that likes to climb
