Ah I see. Ty. I just read the new Fire-Bellied Toad care sheet. I am surprised you can keep 4-5 in a ten gallon. I'm used to thinking like I do with White's Tree Frogs where you need a 20 gallon for one. Can they swim? Or should I keep the water shallow? (My current filtering device of choice requires the water level be 10 inches or higher. Which may pose a problem for 2 inch toads.)
