Reply To: Do pixie frog need water heater?

Well yes and no. Because a frog drinks through his skin, he has no choice but to spend a considerable amount of time in his bowl. If the water temperature itself is around 82, there should be no problem. Less than that and he may either get chilled, or begin to avoid the bowl and become dehydrated. If you have a laser digital thermometer, check the bowl throughout the day, including evening, to make sure the bowl is absorbing heat from the adjacent sources.
