50/50 sponge setup for pyxie frogs

[bullythefrog]

Hi all,

I was thimking of using a 50 land / 50 water sponge setup for my pyxie frog - people do this for pacmans and I dont see why they cant be done for african bullfrogs (except the frog can't burrow).

In other words, the whole tank would have water but a sponge on 50% of the tank for the frog to keep dry. Sponge material would be simple pond filter material.

I think the advantages are - easy water change, no impaction risk, hygeinic.

Disadvantage is that frong can't burrow - which isn't a problem if the frog doesn't get stressed out right?

Anyone has any other significant disadvantages to point out?

Thanks all for your feedback!!

This will take a lot of sponge because they tend to like deeper water than a Pacman. I've never seen any setups for a Pyxi that was done in this way.
