    Seems like a cranwelli to me, cute frog!
    A 5 gallon should be ok, a 10 is more than enough. Large tanks can actually stress out smaller frogs, so I wouldn't I bigger than a 10 for now.
    I can't quite tell the sex yet, but if it's a male a 10-15 gallon will be fine, a 15-20 for a female.

    Be sure to treat his water and keep the temps around 80 during the day, 76 at night, and humidity around 80%, use a calcium supplement every other day and a multivitamin every week and you should be ok!

    Can we get a picture of his enclosure?

    Nice Cranwelli.

    Try not to handle him. They become extremely stressed from frequent handling. Babies should be kept in medium to large critter keepers because large spaces overwhelm them and cause stress. Also large enclosures make it difficult for them to capture their food.

    you could get a small critter keeper and place it inside the terrarium you have. In a month, if you feed your frog right, it will be big enough for the 10 gallon.

    Cant tell gender yet at that age.

    Nice looking frog cowis. I wouldn't feed it goldfish though they contain thiaminase that can be bad for your frog. A ten gallon will be good for your frogs entire life really. I blocked off half of the tank for mine when he was smaller so he could capture prey easier. Crickets, dubia roaches, and worms are great staple foods. I'd avoid mealworms too frankly. And wait on feeding pinkies until its bigger.

    This thread is over a year old... please start a new thread (button located above the Pacman forum title) instead of bumping up a old one with a unrelated question. The answer is yes though, they can reproduce in captivity if that is what you are asking... The search function on here is great and I suggest you use it next time as you can find many answers through it!

    Regards,
