Chad just for the future could you use units like inches, we have a lot of members that do not live in the US like Ebony is from New Zealand, could get confused, I know I do some times.

"I have used 10 gallon (38 L) aquariums for 2 to 3 adult frogs, and various sizes of "critter keepers" for juvenile frogs. Due to the arboreal nature of these frogs, the taller the enclosure the better,"(A segment from the care sheet on this forum, I recommend you read it if you haven't already)
If you go by one cubic foot= 7.5 Gallons then that is about 11 Gallons so I would say no to four but ok to three.

No my problem is when people post dimensions and don't say the units like if he had said the dimensions were 32x32x48 I would have said sure more then four would definitely be fine and I being from the US would think inches when it actually is cm and then my advice would be off.

In that size, I would say about 2. Three might be pushing it. You can use a simple ZooMed pump to circulate water up and out of the substrate and use the substrate as a biological filter.

I do two adult red eyes in a 10 gallon tank. They never move in the day. Just at night mine literally are awake for maybe 2 or 3 hours tops. I have watched them a few nights just to see how long they stay awake. They are lazy little piggies who poop a lot.

Mine do that too, but also make lots of noise and tadpoles.
