Size:  17.6 KB for better filtration and more space for good bacteria growing. The problem was with sediment on top layer of water. All filters for aquarium have that floater what collecting as well top layer but it need to be deep water to work well. I did put 3cmx3cm china water pump 1cm below the water level to pump all sediment under the undergrawel filter if I want to clean top of it and it's working well.

    Today I did found one of my toads completely submersed like 1cm below of the water level. I'm waiting 1 minute nothing .... MY LITTLE ONCE IS DEAD OR WHAT ?!!!? Quickly I took my toad out from the water and I did place her on the rock in the middle. She is alive !!!! But as quick as I took her from the water she comeback there hehehe.... diving lessons hehehe.... They are spending much more time in this pound then before in the bowl with water even in the day time.

    think I'm going to mimic your build but use a custom water bowl made at a pottery place to my dimensions and level it with the substrate instead of filtering it, I gotta switch the look up their home is too mundane

    Don't forget about ammonia and nitrite level in the water. Maybe I'm wrong buy in my opinion You need to change water every day if you are not going to use water filtration where good bacteria can develop and brake it down. I'm using API test kit they are ok
