New terrarium for my male ABF, help me guys!

[Mentat]

thank you all guys! ok, so no grill in earth side...what do you mean with plain bottom?

I mean, myself would let the enclosure bottom glass be the dry section bottom. You can build a drainage layer if you want; but have to make it sturdy enough to withstand an ABF digging efforts.

You wanna take the gravel out, if ingested it may end up very badly, you can put big rocks instead, big enough for adult frog not to ingest. And you need to cover 3 sides of the enclosure. i like the idea though!

so i have to buy enormous gravel!?

what do you mean cover 3 sides? frog hates glasses around him?

Well, you don't need any gravel really. Speaking from experience, it will make cleaning up much more difficult, especially since you do not appear to have filtration of any kind.
What I did was simply place large, flat rocks in my water area instead. Easier to keep clean.

I think Lija is suggesting to cover three sides of the tank with something (like an aquarium background for example) to help the frog feel more secure.

1) ok ill put some large rocks in water area and i will remove gravel

2) is it ok if i only cover back one? or i have really to cover all 3 ?

3) the water level, how much has to be? (are there any risks of drowning for the frog?)
