    As long as the rocks are big enough that they can't be swallowed or you get a big slab that would be fine. Also I sometimes put a thin layer of moist coco husk on top of the rocks.

    If you're planning on releasing them make sure to keep them away from any other captive amphibians.
    before releasing them you should treat them for Bsal and Bd (chytrid fungus) as the bullfrogs can carry these without showing symptoms then it will spread rapidly through the local amphibians, killing them all.
    They can be cured as follows;
    Bsal: keep at a constant temperature of 26 degrees centigrade for 10 days.
    Bd: treat with anitfungal foot spray from the chemist, one squirt per 100cc of water. Soak them in it for ten minutes every other day for 12 days (6 times total).
    It might seem like a hassle but it is completely necessary.
