    honestly i've never seen giant labeled as a dwarf before and for it to be a male too, wow. one other sign of a giant is that green lines on a sides go all the way to a eyes.
    Alass this is not always true. Some Dwarfs have the lateral stripes to the eyes as well. Probably differs between individuals.

    Indeed the gap does expand as the frog grows and matures. This is the same frog that SCF posted a pic of mine. He is just over 2 months and over 5" SVL.

    Ill post some photos with better lighting when I get back home. He ate another 7 earthworms last night and the blueish color was really noticeable.. of course my camera was dead... go figure. I appreciate the input, it doesn't really matter which but I guess it would be nice to know just to plan the tank up grade....he is small enough now to where he lives in a 10g... but quickly growing. Thanks again

    Bit of a delay in response here but here are some updated photos taken this morning, if you look at the last photo of the first post and the first photo of these photos, shows you kinda how much hes grown in a month. He already trumping the size of my pacman, easily past 4inches now. Tried to get a good rear leg photo while he was chomping down on some earthworms. After talking to one of the employees at the lps where I purchased him...age should be around 2 and a half to 3 months old. Once again appreciate any input.

    It does NialR35. The third and fourth definitely do not look female though.
