    Just an update. I have an awesome tank going. Its the 40 breeder but I arranged rock and slate to make land area and partial submerged land area about a an inch deep and so forth. I am using a large exoterra waterfall filter and midsize river rocks for substrate. I have 4 firebellies, 4 danios, 4 rasborras and 4 red eye tetras in about 25 gallons of water. I have the frogs hand feeding so can make sure each gets food(kind of awesome they eat from my fingers). I also have some pothos and fern with a small t8 light.Im really really happy how it all turned out too.I keep a check on ammonia levels and so far has been perfect.
    The fire bellies stay in their area and rarely go in the deeper water. I have stayed with faster fish and keep the frogs well fed..I did lose a frog when I was refreshing the water a few weeks back, I didnt realize they would jump out so quickly with the screen off.
    Im hoping to add a moss ball too in future.
