My Fire Belly Tank

Yea I was the same way! I started out with tropical fish. Then I wanted to keep reptiles/amphibians but mom always said no so if I did catch a toad from my backyard I had to keep it outside in a container, which was not a good idea because I always forgot to feed them and take care of them. So just recently me and my mom went to petsmart to look at fish because we recently got a 55 gallon at a garage sale for $25. But at my petsmart they have the fire bellys in the same area as the fish. So I showed my mom and at first she was like no but after looking at the fish mom finally said I could have a fire belly as long as I used my money and took care of him. Which I did because she let me put him in my room and I remembered because I always saw him. So, that's really cool that you have 4 aquariums. How many gallons are they and are they tropical? Right now I only have the 55 gallon and a 5 gallon with a gold fish which he is getting to big so we will probably put him in our outside pond. I'll have to go see your post about your tank too.

All my aquariums are fresh water 2- 10 gallons, one 29 gallon and one 55 gallon. I got some crickets for my frogs today. I saw one of them jump at them but didn't catch it. My frogs tend to stay hidden or in the wood all day. Am thinking about getting a few more so maybe I'll actually see them once in a while.

Yea Mine usually stay in the water by the filter. My one brown frog Fred likes to wedge himself between glass and under the filter. I tried putting gravel under the filter but he just digs it away and goes under it. Do you or anybody know why he does that? The temps at 68-71 at least that's what my temp sticker on the glass said on the land side. Also, I put mealworms in a dish and they haven't touch them and I put them in there around 12:00 EST. I don't know if its because they don't see into the dish and see the mealworms moving. Oh and mine stay hidden behind the fake plant when they are not in the water. I'm thinking about getting a bigger habitat for them and get a few more frogs too. Or Can I have 3 in a 10 gallon?
