    Exclamation Is Acrylic Paint frog safe?

    I'm going to be painting my room with non-toxic Green Acrylic paint, and moving the two big Bullfrog tanks to the middle of the room whilst taking the Chorus frogs and Sals tanks entirely out. No paint will make contact with either Gnag or Bumpy or their tanks - but I know Acrylic Paint produces fumes. Will this harm Gnag and Bumpy, or will keeping the window completely open and a fan over each tank suffice in keeping the fumes away from them? Unfortunately, unless I took them both out, Gnag my spare critter keeper and Bumpy in the 5 Gallon hospital setup (with no lid) for maybe 24 hours, they cannot leave their tanks.

    Most of the time these frogs reside in their driftwood caves, only their head out of the water and mostly undercover. At night, they come out but at least half of their bodies are submerged in water all the time.

    I need to know before tomorrow, so any answers would be appreciated.

    (Oh, and sorry if I put this in the wrong category. I was unsure as to which category it would fall into.)
