Help choosing a frog or toad....

For smaller tree frogs I would go minimum of 24". If you're thinking bigger like the Whites I would go 36". As for toads the Oak toad is bigger than the Bubble or Western Green yet would be comfortable in a 20 gallon.

Unless I'm looking at the wrong toad, the Oak Tod comes in at around the same size as a Bumble Bee Toad. Don't get me wrong, it's a beautiful toad but it's not for me.

What about Southern Toads, think 20 gallons is too small for one? Perhaps I'll just get a few FBT's, they've always caught my eyes in pet shops and making a 20 gallon semi aquatic tank sounds pretty fun. My only challenge (other than never making a semi aquatic tank haha) is temps but I figure I'll put these guys out in my living area.

I'm definitely not giving up on toads though, one day I really do hope to own a Anaxyrus woodhousii velatus, it has really caught my eye.

Maybe for some haha, Texas is a little far from me and local laws makes getting any native species pretty much illegal. The one frog I have right now I'm pretty sure I don't have legally, although I can't be sure as it was found in my house and not taken from the wild. Unless my house IS the wild?

LOL..

I've always been mystified with toads but their eyes keeps on freaking the daylights out of me haha

If you are mainly looking for something semi-aquatic then I would possibly recommend a Fire Bellied Toad? These are very good beginner amphibians, can be bought very cheaply and are readily available in most pet shops that sell exotics and would be very happy in your tanks specs...

That's the plan for now.
