    IMO fire bellies do best in setups with 50:50 land and water or slightly more water. I keep mine with up to 4 inches of water and a turtle dock for land. Filters are a must because they produce so much waste when properly maintained but they won't like constant moving water, so make sure to put the filter on it's lowest setting and have a tank big enough so that there will be still water parts. Since they are diurnal and bask, UVB lighting is wholly beneficial and they will also use a basking spot via a heat lamp

    What type of filter would you recommend? Again, I'm completely new to this and I've never had any kind of amphibian before.
