95g hex

[bettagurl]

What would you use it for?
I have three african clawed frogs who could inhabit the bottom few inches, but are there any critters who could stay mainly around the top half (lots of natural vines/platforms and a small land area above the water) that aren't a danger to my frogs and who aren't IN danger from them? Don't need it to be especially humid? Because the frogs prefer the water to be cooler.
The water will be well filtrated, of course.
I can have a screen or glass/plexi top.

I am open to all suggestions... The ACFs might not even go in, so feel free to add suggestions for any other critter who would be happy living in there other than mammals.

99" around, and 32" tall.

You could also add how YOU would set it up, what materials and how they would be.

I really do like leopard geckos... What about a beardie? What items would I need for him or her?

I'm just exploring my options, I don't really need another pet now.

What's the width of the tank? As in, how much floor space is there? You could do a really neat multi-level tank, where there are rocks or wood piled up to different levels (either dry or wet).

I don't know, but it's a nice problem to have

I recomend simply a hand full of cool looking ephifids like bromelids, Tillandsia sp and mosses for the next reasons. First a bearded dragon or a leopard gecko, dont know if you are serious but is 100% of, completley diferent condicions needed. A combo that could work would be arboreal frogs or small lizards but even these are not advizable. Small lizards are not good swimers in case they falled in the water apart the fact that the frogs could very likely get them and they would suffer from the too much humity. Small tree frogs aint a good combo either because the claweds not only are predators but they also are assinptomatic carriers of cytric fungus, wich doesant afects them or fish but that its letal to allmost all the other amphibs, all that it takes its water contact, so its not a good idea.

I say a few tree frogs. I have a 35 hex and I'm putting tree frogs in mine. Check out the thread in the photo lounge.

Very risky, like I said before african clawed frogs carry cytric fungus wich doesant afects them but its letal to most other amphibs and all it takes its water contact (another resilient amphib the north american bull frog its the responsable for spreading this desiase allmost world wide because it is used on aquaculture, wich is causing the mass exctincion of many amphib species)

Not with the ACF's though of course. If he's getting ACF's then it's a tank with water. I'm saying skip the ACF's and get just tree frogs.

you might be able to turn it into a paludarium and have both land and water. here is a cool one to give you some ideas:

If you skip the normal african clawed frogs, get dwarf clawed frogs from a good sorce and put them on quarentine for a mouth you can do a very atractive paludarium including tree frogs like Hyperolius sp because these if they have cytric fungus die straingth away and dont go assimptomatic carriers
