Re: Need your input! Going to be setting up my first FBT tank!
Ok. Reduced the water to just a few inches. Sloped the sand to the right and used large flat rocks to make a landing area.
Thoughts?
Hanging out on the other side of the tank while I set up the right side. They were not happy with me!
Enjoying the new area
Confirmed male! Finally. I have repeatedly watched him call and mount other frogs.

Just a couple questons.
How do you know if they have ate? Are you taking them out to feed them? How do you find all the dead bugs they don't eat?
Just wanting more tips for my 10 gallon set up.
Re: Need your input! Going to be setting up my first FBT tank!
I watched mine eat. They ate most (75% or more) of the crickets with in an hour. The next morning the rest were eaten or floating. I used reptile tweezers to grab the dead ones to remove them.
And make that 4 males. I really hope the other two are females! (I am just going by the "if it barks, its a male" theory. If this is wrong please correct me!)

No, females can bark too, it just sounds different. You have to assume its a female until you see it mount, that's my method because only males mount. Also, the tank looks really nice, just make sure you clean it every week as they can be harmed by their own toxins.
Re: Need your input! Going to be setting up my first FBT tank!
Oh ok, I thought females only barked if the male tried to grab on and they weren't in the mood.
Will females just sit there and bark like the males?

Not as much, but they still do sometimes i believe. Like i said, it sounds a little different. Males and females can make a trilling release call
Re: Need your input! Going to be setting up my first FBT tank!
Okay well so far I have seen 4 of the 6 frogs just sitting there, by their lonesome, barking. I will assume these are males for the time being. I have one that I am sure is a female...she is a bit smaller but much more round with skinny little arms. The 6th one I am not sure of at this point. I haven't seen it bark but it is more slim then the other one.
Will I have problems with so many males/so few females?
