    I am not a big expert on Ranids, but the pickerel frog is one that I am very familar with. So I am definitely going to stand by my ID. If you want to make sureand end all doubt, you can always consult a field guide such as the Peterson guide for the eastern US.

    The last pics you posted are definitely Lithobates pipiens, the norhtern leopard frog.

    Well either way that is a cute little guy you have there. Glad he has his own tank.

    He has to have his own tank, pickerels are toxic. He could be housed with another pickerel of similar size, but other than that nothing else.

    You're welcome. I think pickerels are the coolest of the Ranids.
