    Default Bumblebee Walking Toads, Trying to make a beautiful enclosure!

    I'm on my way to alberta for the Western Canadian Reptile Expo next friday and i'm really hoping to pick up some more toads there! I've done a fair share of goggling but unlike chameleons, and some geckos I haven't found a "safe plant" list for BBWTs. But i'd like to have a nice viv set up for all the little toadlets that is both beautiful, and natural, and provides a great home. I want to use a variety of plants.. assorted types, colours - to try and make it appealing and homely for them.

    Here's some of what I want in there, if you know if it's safe let me know!

    - Bromeliads
    - Prayer Plant
    - Some sort of creeping/climbing ivy plant, preferably with flowers.
    - Some/a few types of ornamental grasses/ferns

    Also any other plants that anyone knows of that are for sure on the SAFE, or NOT SAFE plant - i'm all ears!

    Thanks in advance!

    I wouldn't use ivy because a lot of ivys and contain a toxic liquid in their 'veins'
    creeping fig and wandering jew usually work well in tanks though and look nice too, the wandering jew has purple flowers with yellow centers when they bloom too

    Gotcha no ivy. Its not necessarily ivy im looking for, just a viney/creeping plant.

    Pothos are good, bromeliads are good too. I think what is considered safe for frogs goes for most any frog/toad but I could be wrong. I've got peacock spikemoss in a couple of my viv's, they do best with high humidity and spread fast if given high humidity and moderate light. The little frogs are small and light enough to climb on top of the ferns (or hide within them).
