I'd say 2 to 3 adult green tree frogs, with decorations.

121 litres is about 32 gallons, so I would say its safe to fit 4 frogs in there. However try to not have too many males in there or there may be territorial issues, which I have seen before. Try to have 1 male and 3 females. If not just make sure theres a lot of hiding spots. Good luck

are you referring to Whites Tree Frogs as the tree frogs that your interested in? If so sexing is fairly difficult. Males croak at about the age of one, are a lot smaller than females and develop nuptial pads during mating season.

Male dumpy tree frogs are smallers and can vocalize around the age of one. They also develop nuptial pads which is used to "grip" the females when they mate. Females are generally larger and plumper looking. General guideline would be 1 frog for every 10 gallons so 3 would be a good number.
