New toad tank!

[nicodimus22]

I was going to wait a little while to upgrade my toad tank, but today I saw an offer I just couldn't refuse (new 20-gallon long for $18.) The floor space has doubled from the old tank. The toads are still pretty tiny and don't need the room yet, but when they are adults, this should be just right. I think the tank is looking a little plain, so I might get some fake plants to put against the back wall. Not sure if plastic or silk is the way to go though.

Great tank Pete! Such cute little guys!

Is that coco-fibre substrate? How does that works vs. soil or sand? Will plants grow in it?

Thanks,

Yes, it is. I used moist dirt at first but I like the coco better. Mold-resistant, low impaction risk, all that. It's very light and loose, so I doubt it would support most plants enough for them to stand up.

Huh, that stuff sounds great! Where did you get it!?

A local pet store. Most of them should carry it.
