    Default Animal suggestions

    Hey guys, I guess you could say I'm an experienced amphibian keeper, I have pacman frogs, axolotl's, and I've kept american toads, bullfrogs, turtles, etc. So anyway, I recently came into possession of one of those plastic terrariums for the 70's that sits on that white pedestal. (I can't upload an image, I sure you know what I'm talking about though.) Anyway, I want to make a nice vivarium, and would like some suggestions as to what frogs/toads or anything else to keep in it.

    No, it's a vintage terrarium, they were popular on the 1970's it's a big giant plastic globe on a large pedestal. Look up on Google 1970's terrarium, I'm sure you'll find it

    Oh, I see... sorry lol I've never seen one of them before, very weird but cool looking. I'd put bumble bee walking toads in it, if you could ventilate it so the humidity wouldn't be too high??

    There's an open hole at the top, so Its most likely it has great ventilation

    Ah, so there is. If you could make some sort of mesh lid for it, bumble bees would look very nice in that with live plants or some darts or mantellas. For most other toads and frogs I can't see it being suitable. Aquatic frogs would look nice in it though
