Question about Pixies

[dsmalex97]

Similar in size, but the Pyxie frogs will take the cake. Males can get up to 10-12 inches! This isn't common but does happen. You shouldn't need more then a 20-40 gallon tank to accommodate a male.

10"-12"? Big frog, the ones at the store that I saw must have been babies because they could fit in my hand (my hand is 5 1/2").

what petstore are you talking about im from Virginia to

Second largest frogs in the world right underneath the Rana Goliath so you tell me if they are big or not. Depends which pacman you are talking about - female ornates can reach 8-9".

CapoJames has a male ornate that's about a 8" I believe. Female pixies average out about the same size as a full grown cranwelli, just more body mass. Male pixies will definitely surpass the pacman species with the exception of a few female ornates that reach relatively the same size.

You'll find pixies to be a lot more voracious with food, something to think about before purchasing one. You'll be surprised at the quantities of food they can consume on a regular basis.

Picture might help. Could be a dwarf pyxie you are looking at. there colors are much more unique, and they don't grow as large.

Pyxies are a very unique frog!

Oh ok, thanks for clarifying. True, ornates don't come in brown - still amazes me his male cranwelli reaches 8" when their normal size is around 4-6".
