Need approval and suggestions on my new tank setup please

I wouldn't use distilled water, it lacks vital minerals and vitamins that your tads and eventually frogs will need. Dechlorinated tap water will work fine

Okay, thank you! That's actually a good thing. I plan on putting goldfish on the water side and I know they can't survive in distilled water. I read a website that was just posted for me (thank you) and I'm thinking my water is too deep for tadpoles.

I appreciate all the responses! I feel a lot better about not killing my tadpoles..lol It would break my heart. Thanks everyone!

I wouldn't put goldfish in the water side. Not only will it eat your tad poles but they get WAY too big for that small of a space. You would do much better with guppies in the water side. But from my recent experience, only get male guppies. They breed like wildfire! I STILL have babies in my crayfish tank that I can't catch to bring to the pet store LOL.

I wouldn't use goldfish just for the simple fact of the amount of waste they generate. That little whisper will never keep up. And it would take about 6 months for the biofilter to mature enough to handle the amount of ammonia they dump in the water properly.

Guppies? Hmmm...

[deranged chipmunk]

you could also go with micro fish like rasboras or mosquito fish. i'm a HUGE fan of endler's live bearers (a species of guppy). there are some really cool hybrids of them out on the market, if you can find them.

I', cycling my warer so I can put guppies in my tank(thanks for the suggestion) but I'm wondering if this water will be safe for my green tree frogs and green anoles? Can anyone help me with this?
