I think it would still be better to wait at least a week (or until I'm sure it has cycled) to put them in the 10 gallon. It should be just 2 frogs or 3 at the most so i am hoping they will be okay with daily water changes in a bare bottom 5 gallon with heater until the other tank is ready? I am still trying to find an led light or hood that will fit over the tank when it has a screen over it... any suggestions appreciated!
As long as you keep the water level to the point where they can't hop out you'll be fine, since this is temporary you don't have to fill all the way, send pictures! Use Bottled spring water or tapwater as of now if you can! Just make sure you dechlorinate if you use EITHER. I suggest a big bottle of Tetra Dechlorinater.


I use tetra aqua safe plus, here is a picture of it, I always keep it under the tank in the cabinet for my fire bellies, I bought the largest size which I think is a 9 oz? You're supposed to add it in when you do your monthly water changes.



I ordered it online from pet mountain for 17 bucks, This is a 16 OZ, though I've heard that beta conditioner works well too, so you could prob pick that up at any petstore for like 5 bucks.
