I am in the middle or beginning stages of creating a 40b vert tank for crested geckos.. I know not frogs but i follow this threads builds because they seem to be the best I've found.
So here goes my build or start.. I first glued several green floral foam blocks together and started t carve using a knife to get a rough shape I then used my fingers/hands to carve and form the rest of the tree. very messy process...
Then i added roots and branches and connected them with a bamboo skewers to help support them and glued them on.
I then sealed it with Drylok 3 coats and then mixed brown paint with some Drylok and did another coat. I have also added more coloring with several different browns.
I started last night created some vines and added a couple to the tree.
next i need to start on the water feature that will go on the left side wall and the rock background.
just thought I'd share
