I can seem to find what lighting wattage i should use for my tree frog its the summer so it doesnt need heat so 25 30 40 or 50 watts should be good? And long should i have it on daily?

Its good to simulate natural hours of the day. I have a friend that copies the exact hours of day and night with his timed lights. His frogs and plants in his terrariums always looked to be in good shape. I keep my lights on for about 8-10 hours a day. As for wattage I'd use something that doesn't radiate a lot of heat. I use 40 watts for all my setups. Plants grow nicely! Good luck!
Thanks man that helped alot. I found a new set with 40 watts.

Shane douglas:with axolotls would I basically have to keep buying and buying new axolotls to prevent inbred breeding which costs a lot of money??+1

Thorninmyside:Not necessarily but if you’re wanting to continue to grow your breeding capacity then yes. Breeding axolotls isn’t a cheap hobby nor is it a get rich quick scheme. It costs a lot of money and time and deditcation+1

Clareclare:Would Chinese fire belly newts be more or less inclined towards an aquatic eft set up versus Japanese . I'm raising them and have abandoned the terrarium at about 5 months old and switched to the aquatic setups you describe. I'm wondering if I could do this as soon as they morph?+1
