I have a horned frog or also known as pacman frogs. I have im in a 10g. will he grow just as big as he would in a 10g then a 20 or 30g or do you think the larger the tank the larger he will get?

I want to get a nother horned frog and would need to divied the tank. but would I be ok with using my 29g or should I look at getting a 40-50g. I dont wanna have to get the extra space if its not needed.

Thank you!
 
anything?
 
If you were going to divide the tank. I would go with a 40 breeder. The whole "it will grow to the size of its tank" is bs.

ok thats what I was thinking but wanted to be sure. I have a 29g witch if I split it in half the ground area is 15x12, its wider than the 10 but afew inches shorter. I was thinking it would work since he dosent really travel to far from his normal hiding spot. but the 40-45 split in half gives me an area of 18x18.

the 15x12 would start to get small as he grows. i would go with an 18x18

yeah looking at it last night and I was thinking once I put decor in it its going to be even smaller so I Think Im just going to keep one in the 29g. I want to decorate the tank with a 3d background and plants. I almost like creating the hab as much as keeping the my pets them self haha.

Is that a dwarf caiman you have for your pic? If I had to give up all my pets to get one I would do it in a hart beat! once I move out of were im living now Its the first thing im going to get.
 
no. its a cuban crocodile. even better. i wish it was mine
 
Ive never seen them befor Ill have to look them up.
