I need to know what he (she?) is so I can make sure I set up his tank correctly. He's about 1-2" big but he only lost his tail last week (not sure how big he will get). He loves being in running water. He's more active at night. He's is TERRIFIED of us sticking our hands in his tank (any way to socialize a frog ??) We'd also like to get him a friend if that's something that can happen safely.

Anyhow, I'm sure he'll be an easy ID for most of the froggy experts, but we can't find any pictures that look enough like him to say that's what he is for sure.

Thanks and we look forward to meeting more froggy friends.
If my guess is right, he'll grow up to 5 inches. Here are a couple of websites with photos and descriptions.
