African Bullfrog Setup Questions

...I think this heat is adequate at the time b/c he stays very active and eats constantly, but I am thinking I might need a heater for the water to keep it a little warmer during the winter time. Any thoughts? Ideas about how I should do this? I was thinking of buying a submersible water heater to put in the water section, but don't know if that would work or not...

First estimate the actual water volume in your water section by using this formula or any other on the net: Aquarium Volume Calculator (W.C.S. Ltd.) . Once you get approximate gallons can get a heater rated for that volume. Usually they are rated to raise temp. 10 degrees F above ambient. I prefer Eheim's Jagger heaters because of their quality, shatterproof glass, accuracy, and efficiency; but as long as fully submersible you should be OK. Also, locate so frog does not come into contact with it. Good luck!

I bought a submersible heater for the tank and it stays right around 80 degrees for water temp night and day...seems pretty ideal to me. I hid it under a couple rocks so it is somewhat hidden...I think it did the trick. Thanks for the help.
