    Depending on the height, those sizes are way too small for the larger species. Even if the height is 24 inches (making the volume ~20 gallons), an 8x24 area of floor space (minus space occupied by the water feature, plants, backgrounds, etc., is not nearly enough to keep larger frogs happy. Although they do climb, tinctorius, leucomelas, and auratus are primarily ground dwellers and need plenty of floor space.

    You could try pairs of thumbnails, but they aren't the best beginner frog.

    If it's not too late to change the design, I'd recommend expanding the enclosures for the dart frogs to a width of 18 inches instead of 8 inches.

    Ok. I was planning on this rack being a foot high. I was planning on doing ground dwellers 1st. I am trying to use 2 sheets of acrylic to complete the whole rack as acrylic is a few hundred a sheet.

    What do you think of these dimensions. 12x12x24 deep?
