    I think what I'll do is get a storage bin from Walmart and convert it to a terrarium, at least while they're growing. That will at least give me time to find a larger aquarium and do a vertical conversion on it.

    I suppose it wouldn't hurt to ask this, but how hard would it be to use a 90 gallon hexagon aquarium for a terrarium? I know its far larger than I need, but I only mention it because of an add for one that's for sale here in a local ad that I could probably get on the cheap.

    I think that would be awesome to convert. I have a 35 gal hex and have been watching for 90's on craigslist, I love the hex tanks. Ventilation can be tricky, I keep a laptop fan going above mine to keep the air moving. With the depth and only the top available for air flow, it's a must for the greys. I got the fan for maybe $5 on amazon 3 years ago. Well worth it.

    I thought maybe it was time to post a picture of how the little grays are doing. I've been finding droppings each time I change the damp paper towel in the quarantine tank each time I change it now.

    Apparently I have a slow changer in the bunch. Last night I discovered one of the last 3 tadpoles I had morphed into another gray bringing the total up to 6. Since my last post I've converted 2 cheap sterilite semi-transparent storage bins into newer, more spacious quarantine/temporary tanks for both the 5 rapidly growing grays and the 4 small fowler's toads I also have in quarantine. So far the grays have been leaving solid feces on the wet paper towels each day with no evident signs of disease as of yet. In fact as soon as I can I'll be switching the older grays from the melanogaster fruit flies I got from Josh's Frogs to the Hydei's I just received a day ago from Josh's as well.

    Before anyone asks, the newest morph has went into old critter keeper the 5 grays were in after it was sterilized and setup once again.
