    Cool Tank Size Requirements- 2 adult Bufo Alvarius

    Hello, I have a question about the proper tank size for two male Colorado River Toads, both around 5-6 inches. I currently own an empty 55 gallon tank, but I was reserving that for a ball python.
    If I wanted to get a different tank for my toads- I need to have a decent idea on the proper size. I want to start setting up a foam background, and I need to know if I should build it for a snake, or the toads I'm getting first. If the 55 gallon is needed to house two adult toads, I will just get a separate enclosure for my snek. Otherwise, I will set up the background for the snake, and keep the toads in it until I can afford a seperate toad enclosure.
    Please throw your opinions in Thank you.

    Once both of them are adults, a pair could live in a 55 gallon safely, even though it's a bit on the small side. If you did have the space, I'd suggest a 65-70 when they're fully grown, but for now house them in something that they still have enough space in. Here's some care-sheets if you haven't found them already: http://www.reptilesmagazine.com/Natu...do-River-Toad/ http://www.frogforum.net/content.php...n-and-Breeding And also, do you supply them UVB?
