Let's see those Frog and Toad Enclosures!

I am on the hunt for a vertical tank. I am getting one as soon as I can, I know she'd love the extra climbing room. would a 15 gal tall work well? Any ideas as to where I could find one?

15 is a good size. I actually use one of the small exo-terra vertical terrariums, but those are orver rated (and way over priced). You'd be better off buying one of the same shape that is sold as just the terrarium (not in a kit like the Exo-Terra). I believe Petco in the US sells the kind I'm talking about that is not sold in a kit. The brand is Zoo Med I think? I believe I link it in the Gray Tree Frog article.

so something like this?. What size would be good for just one frog? or the Zilla version here. I think I like the second one a little better

This is the one I was talking about: (second one on this page, not the 12x12x12):

I have the Exo-Terra and I wouldn't buy again due to the price and not so great quality of materials (the sealing was flawed and the mesh in the roof rusts very easily).

The one you linked is a mesh terrarium and I don't like these for treefrogs because you can't keep the humidity up. Those are really better for chameleons.

I have luck with a 20 gallon long tank standing up on end. I cut and siliconed a piece of Lexan to cover the bottom third of the tank opening. Then I got some of that DIY window screen frame and made one to fit. Once the plastic screening is installed, I use adhesive Velcro strips to keep it firmly in place.

Hi there, This is my out door enclosure that I call my Frogery. It is 2metres by 2metres. The plants have grown alot since this photo. I will take some of my indoor enclosures.

Ebony, that is a very cool outdoor enclosure! Very lush and green. I wish I could have an outdoor one here...sigh. Stupid snow and freezing temperatures!! Can't wait to see some of your indoor setups!

[John]

Ebony, what kind of frogs do you keep in there?
