I don't think the cane toad is that ugly. I liked all of them though. I'm still sticking with tree frogs. But my friend won't find those in this area, I believe (though I have seen cane toads for sell). Originally, she wanted a chinese water dragon, until I told her more about them. Now she's switched to frogs, but she has a 50 gallon, so she wants something that will get a pretty nice size.
