    Thank you all! I did lower the water level to about 2", a tiny bit over that. I plan to get 3 green fbts from a local pet shop (not a chain store but family owned and they treat their animals well). I will add some more land, maybe move the rocks around for a more half/half look than just the random placement. Do they need a burrowing substrate, like moss? I have some spare moss that I use for my leopard gecko's humid hides, just frog moss from the pet store not live, and I haven't used it yet so I could spread that over the rocks. I figure coco fibre would dirty the water a lot considering how it looks when you first put the brick into the water.

    They don't really need to burrow. They'd more likely love a little cave to hide under or a plant with some over-hang. You'll find that they'll love being in the water. Sometimes they'll just sit in it, so a shallow area is nice. Moss can be used, but never feed on the moss because if they accidentally ingest it while eating they can get an intestinal impaction.
