Need your help picking my Pyxie!

[GrifTheGreat]

@Colleen/Jerrod: Thanks for the pics Colleen/Jerrod. Is that an exo terra? If so what size? Where's the frog?

Thank you guys for all the great feedback. Seeing as how I did not have another critter carrier, I just ended up buying a 10gal tank to start with and hopefully my little guy won't feel intimidated. Man, I'm already loving these little guys too much, and my wallet is from all the shopping. Two questions though:

1)Eventually, I want to get the Exo-terra medium-low which is 24x18x12, will this be good for when my pyxie is an adult or a 20gal would be better (IF i end up getting a male)?

2)I own the Exo-terra small-low (18x18x12)...this should be good enough for when my ornate becomes an adult EVEN if it turns out to be a female right? Please.... if not I'm 300% screwed lol.

-So just to double check, the pyxie does not need to be submerged/floating in water (as some youtube videos I've seen showing off their set ups); water to the chin is fine and there's no need for a "pool" right?

Thanks again

The tank is a Tetrafauna and the frog is in the rock hut on the left side of the tank. Can't see him.

What size is it though?

So here it my new baby! He is so tiny, around 1 inch +! Looks healthy and very active in his new 10 gal. (Thanks for the Petco sale heads up Carlos!)




Tell me what you guys think! His hind legs are a little grey-ish/dark blue ish. What is that?

Another question that is a little off topic. My ornate pac is around 2 inches, is it okay to put him in the 18x18x12 exo terra or should a wait a bit more? It's just that the medium critter carrier is taking too much space and I have the exoterra empty. Will it be too big for him ? I mean the pyxie is in a 10gal and is half his size lol. Let me know.

It looks good. It also looks hungry. The grey/blue coloring is just it's baby colors, it will fade as it matures.

Yea I think he might be hungry. I will feed him tonight though. He has been moving a lot, hopping here and there and stares at me lol. These guys should be able to eat nightcrawlers as well right?( pretty much the same diet of a pacman) because it's all I have at the moment and I hate crickets lately.
