    There are a lot of live plants that you can use in a terrarium that will not have any affect on your allergies. Go to a plant nursery in your area and an educated sales person there should be able to point you in the right direction. That way you could see the plants and make sure they would be the proper size for your setup.

    As far as the rocks, depending on the size they can add a lot of weight. Why don't you consider a nice peice of wood. They look very natural in a frog tank and they are a lot lighter.

    I was thinking of adding some drift wood but I dont know if a toad would actually use the drift wood. I like rockformations alot but it seems I cant use the bigger ones. Anything bigger than 3inches they wont allow. Ived had past troubles with larger rocks so I guess I see their point. But Iam trying to think of lightweight rocks that will not break my tank. Currently the bigger toad I measured wrongly. He actually is 2inches long. I guess I made a mistake on that one. Well actually hes a little under 2 inches a few centimeters off. But I guess he can go in the larger tank. Iam thinking I want to buy a larger plastic kritter keeper. This one is well a bit too small even for crickets. Now I know why my crickets wouldnt survive. :P Only the babies survive. So I guess id use that for baby crickets and the larger ones can go on a medium sized bin. At any rate I just want to make sure I got everything right. Ace being the larger of the two is not afraid of humans as much as the smaller one. They actually remind me of males. I cant say for sure. But they have ummm... How do I say this... pink gonads. Its kinda weird. Where I found them it seems theres only one variation of the american toad. The tan brown. The larger one changes colors sometimes.
