Morning FF community, been a while since if been on here. To give you a bit of background information I am a US Army Soldier. I travel a lot, pretty much jumping to a new state every 2-3 years. Because of my job situation I need to relocate here in a few months and I have moved my GABF into large sterilite containers so I can move a little easier. I do get the benefit of movers to come in and pack up everything I own but they are notorious for breaking glass enclosures/fish tanks so sterilite till i get to my new location and see whats broken. I did have my 3 GABF males in one 40g Breeder. Surprising they did very good, no fighting, they all seemed to have a territory staked out of where they ended up digging in the dirt(I do separate them to feed). Later on I will redo their large enclosure.
Questions is what do you think about this setup, and how I can improve it besides the size of the enclosure?
Enclosure size: 66Qt I think
Lighting: UVB in an old fish tank light fixture
Heat: Heat cable under the enclosure, 81 degrees + or - a degree in different spots. Water temp is around 76-78
Substrate: Cocofiber/fake plants

Frogs look fine and the sterilite enclosures should do until you relocate. Only thing I would worry about is the heating cable under the enclosures. Frogs idea of cooling off is to bury; which in their present set-up is not going to work. Did you tried the heating cable on the side? Good luck with relocation !
Remember to take care of the enclosure and it will take care of your frog !
Thanks for the reply. I keep the cable in two spots under the tub. The very front, and the very back. Helps to keep the water temp around 78 and the frogs cant dig down in the coco straight to the cable.
