    Default American Bullfrog Housing

    What is the appropriate sized tank for an American bullfrog? I keep reading different things, ranging from 100 gallons per each adult frog to 10 gallons for one frog. Thank you!

    American bullfrogs require more space than one thinks, adults reaching 8 inches
    will need an 80 gallon tank (10 Gallons per inch of frog) is a good rule of thumb,
    but the bigger the better. you can keep juveniles in a 20 gallon for a while but
    they grow fast!

    This is true. A 100 gallon is a great size, though keep in mind they can be skittish and dive quickly, so remember to use only smooth decor in their homes. They like a large pond area in their homes.
