do you have pics of your tank? I love seeing peoples setups

[FriedrichsFrogs]

nah not yet. i plan on getting some pics of the tank + my little girl (pet) on here at some point but my phone cant transfer pics to the comp so i gota figure out how to setup this other camera + its computer dock thats sumwher around here. my tanks pretty basic, i actually just posted to a few poeple about tips on setting up different levels + this whole foam-carving, vivarium setup is completely new to me. its right up my alley tho cause ive been wanting to make something new myself for months now, i just didnt want to dish out more funds for decorations and such so i gota readup on all of it. all i have is a 10gal with sum garden stones covering the bottom, a floating plastic lillipad for feeding time, a leaf-tub that sticks to the glass, sum plastic leaves that hang from the wire lid, a little castle that i find one of the toads usually hiding in, and a bridge that i propped up against the side of the tank so the toads can get out of the water and get a higher view. Most of the decore is sitting on the bottom i mean im virtually only using 30% of the tank id like to add some more dimension to it.

hey Jay....sorry i missed this thread, i've been in my own little world lately. it's nice to see another Philly person on here, i was feeling lonely...lol if you need any equipment, let me know. i have loads of stuff laying around. (pumps,filters,tanks) it's also good that you're local in case i need to unload some overgrown plants or something....lol i HATE throwing stuff away, unless it's duckweed of course, i have no love for the aquatic version of herpes, but it really makes my fish tanks look good...LOL

haha aquatic version of herpes, yea man i think iv seen a few people from the area here, off the top of my head tho ur the only 1 i can remembr cause u post frequently. im located up in the northeast + yea i have no problem trading equipment if u need some. at the moment i dont have a whole lot to give, just a bag of artificial grass (i forget the brand + wat exactly its called). But for my next tank cleaning i wana use the foam stuff i keep reading about, it looks like a really great idea. my only problem is figuring out how cleaning would go once i have to do another tank change. is the foam easy to just take off of the glass? or is it a permament fixture once its applied? will i have to re-foam everytime i clean the tank? btw what kind of frogs do u keep

[deranged chipmunk]

Are you talking about how they keep pacman frogs on foam? I have seen pics of it, but that's about it. Currently, i have a rubber banded frog (casanova), a white's tree frog (the prophet), and 2 red eyed tree frogs (jake and elwood). I'm currently building a 125 g paludarium for darts and then onto a 40b for fbt's. I need more tanks.....lol

[FriedrichsFrogs]

i think thats wat i mean, the black foam you can apply to the sides + bottom of tanks + then u can carve it into prety much anything you want, landings, shelves, flooring. iv never heard of a rubber banded frog, i had to google them i really like their color designs tho. those tanks sound enormous where do u have the space for all that? btw sweet names
