    Default How many toads?

    I'm new to FBT's but not amphibians, so I'm excited about keeping this new (to me) species!

    Last night I bought two very active little toads and put them in my 15 gallon that I'd set up for them (here's a pic/description)

    I'm thinking of adding one or two more. It seems roomy enough to me but I wanted to make sure. Would 3-4 toads in here be fine?

    Hi Chrissybee. three to four toads can be housed comfortably in a 15 gallon tank. check out our article on Frog Forum - Fire-Bellied Toad Care and Breeding - Bombina orientalis and relatives

    I agree with Ryan, I think youll be fine with 3-4 in a 15 Gal but no more, I have 5 in a 20 Long semi aquatic and they are very happy. Just my .02 worth, : )

    Thanks for the replies

    I'm going to get either one or two more, I"m thinking just one - three would be a nice little colony.

    I am really loving these guys so far. So active and interesting! I just fed them each a piece of nightcrawler, they loved it! From what I've read I'm guessing I should feed them 2-3 times a week?
