New FBT set up

[monster]

Hey, hows the changing things around going? I didn't forget about the pics, took about 6 new shots of the tank the other night and now just have to open up a photobucket account or something so you can see them. I didn't forget, just got really busy.

Hey man, I'm in the process of making a more aquatic set up but not finished yet. Using a turtle dock as land and a few turtle grass fake plants in the water for the frogs to hide in. will post pics up when done okay dokey

alright, so i've finished my set up so I'll show you guys. I plan to keep it this way for some time. my toads are really forgiving but i think they're probably getting quite annoyed with me for changing their home so often. as far as i know by what i've read in books and seen how other people keep their toads, this set up should be fine. my girlfriend actually posted up a set up simmilar to this we had. so i've got my 18" cubed exo terra terrarium for my 3 fire bellies. for the land i'm using a medium turtle bank. the filter i'm using is the one i used before, it's not ideal as it it's a little strong but when i put the plants infront it kind of dims it down, so i think it'll be fine for now. i've got 2 exo terra 13w natural light bulbs for viewing and providing them a day and night cycle. Not using a heater as my room is usually around 18-25 at this time of year. hope you guys like and if any of you have fbts aswell i'd love to see your set ups.

Hey, good job man looks way better. My one last suggestion and it is totally up to you because it does look good is maybe find a nice size rock and put it on the opposite side of the turtle dock. That way if they don't feel like all chillin together if they choose to get out of the water it gives them choice of were they want to be. Or even place a couple smaller rocks just big enough for them to kind of chill on in couple different spots. But like I said that's if you want to because it does look a lot better, Its actually starting to give me some ideas if I ever decide to change my setup.

Much much better.

Does the rock have a decent place for them to hide under? I think they like to have hiding places on both land and water, but even without, that setup will keep them healthier (IMO)

thanks man. yeah one of them does under it. since putting them in this set up. all i can hear are calling noises. sadly, i'm sure all of them are males. think i might get another toad and hopefully it'll be a girl so my boys can get some action does anyone know if fbt's water need to be filtered? i was thinking of going shallower and chucking the filter as it's just making the water go far too crazy, kind of fed up with it. i know some people don't filter cos they say the toads don't like the water movement. what's your thoughts on this? if filtration is a must, i might look into getting eheim mini flat filter.
