Really cool frogs ! I just started getting into frogs because they are interesting little monsters that do not require as much space as our beloved "monster fish" ! Currently I am keeping a Budgett's frog , this little guy is awesome ! I love feeding it and taking care of it, so much so, that now I want to get an ornate horned frog too! I like your choice of names lol, I was thinking of naming my frog Jabba too, or maybe Boss Nass or some other name that would fit a slimy little amphibian. Great collection !!!

Eventually, yes. Fortunately for their keepers, they are quite lethargic, ambush-type predators, and so even a large 7-9" individual doesn't need a massive tank. A 20 long would do well for all but the most gigantic of individuals.

Budgett's Frog is next on my list... or perhaps a more exotic variety of Ornate Frog. Though I hear that the really cool types (Amazonian Horned Frogs) tend to refuse all but amphibians as food. That could put a damper on things.

Thanks! I am thinking about "Goblin" for the Ornate. Not sure yet though!
