New terrarium for my male ABF, help me guys!

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?)

[Lija]

1. Ok
2. You can, but covering 3 sides will help the guy feel safer.
3. They can in theory, but i have never heard of any pixie drowning, they are pretty good swimmers. You can put a rock in a middle for the guy to rest, i bet he'll love it.

Carlos and Lija have you covered.

As for drowning, yes they can drown. They are not fully aquatic nor are they really semiaquatic. They will spend a lot of time in water when available in the wild. As long as he/she has an easily accessable ramp of large stone leading out of the water the frog will be fine.

Now that the ground is much wider and deeper, the frog is always sunk and it seems more static than before, is it any good?
