    Ok. Added more driftwood, took out rocks and now I am happy.

    Makes it have much more climbing areas and a more natural feel. I will be adding more plants eventually, have a small amazon sword in the tank now and some water wisteria left floating. Excuse the "wet" look to the wood. I had it soaking.

    Will add vines in evenutally.

    How does it look?

    Hello Jen! Been quietly observing your FBT tank and it looks good to me. Agree with rock removal and going all driftwood. What kind of sand did you end up using? I see most of it is fine but there is also what looks like larger size gravel in there; will that be an impaction problem? Guess not with depth of tank and if food floats.

    Looking forward to seeing your frogs swim and wonder if they will use all the depth or stay near top. Most FBT enclosures I've seen have only 2-3 in. of water in them. Do you plan to add fish to tank? If so, which species? Also, see some Wisteria in there, would add some plants that shoot broad leaves to top where frogs could climb on. Have fun and good luck !
    Remember to take care of the enclosure and it will take care of your frog !​
