Same here, expect I'm building from scratch. This means building the actual tank.

I decided against the Amazons .
Some other time ?

I plan to find her some company when it is warm enough to ship frogs.
Actually, I probably could have had frogs shipped this week - it's 63 degrees F here on Long Island.
Who would have known!

I'm no hurry though!
Thanks for looking

A little 10/15 Fluval. It's overkill, I know.
But it's a sponge filter, so I would rather it be overkill than not enough- since they pee in the water everyday!

NICE! this is exactly what I needed to know in order to do my vertical conversion. I have the same type of screen lid this one has, mine is a 20 gallon though. Its more than likely the same brand, I dont know where to find that info out though. Anyway, I might do mine a little different though leaving a little bit of screen at the "top" for ventilation and the rest plexiglass. Thanks Lynn!

Omar,
The reason I dropped the ventilation area about 4 1/2" is because the mist head is very close to the top. I don't want some of the spray coning out of the screen ! I am planning to point the mist towards the sides. I goes pretty far. The open vent area is 17" x 8 ish" . I'm actually a little concerned it is too large an area? BUT, the top is glass, I don't want any fried frogs.
