I never said i was going to use moss

oops lol i just read the part bout u seeing lots of cool designs with moss and i thought u were thinking bout using that too lol

[arielgasca420]

my goal is to see if I can custom make a background. if I do than the moss will be high up and out of reach for the frog. I would like to do a water fall and pond area but a lot of people say this will get dirty fast and clog a pump since I have a pyxie frog . is there any ways to avoid these issues?

i have seen some guys on here with 50/50 setups and they seem to do fine with them...but if ur pixie is very active and goes from land to water a lot then u might have a issue with pumps being clogged then

yea ives got a 55gl tank 50\50 land water and ive got a "overkill" pump ment for a 55gl ive got 2 pixies in there 1 male 1 female my male is 600 grams and when he poos it durtys the water fast and hes always in the water dragging coco fiber in with him but if you just rember "you get what you pay for" when it comes to pumps and fliters more is better ...ill add to that i do 25%-50% water changes every week

Thanks Locascio. As much as I would love to have a water fall, I think I will just have to stick with a water bowl and turn my 10 gallon tank into a waterfall vivarium haven for my betta.
