    Hi John

    I keep My lovely big Adult Southern Bells and Green and Golden Bell Frogs in there. Half of the Frogery has a roof and It is lined with a hard clear plastic 1 metre from the bottom which keeps a bit of moisture in. It also has irregation. These Frogs have been together as tadpoles and get on well.
    My Whistling tree frogs are kept in 2 out door tanks that I made with a tunnel that seperated the two tanks into a land side and a pond side. They breed realy well in that situation. My indoor enclosures have my young Frogs in.

    WOW! I cannot wait to see more of your set ups, and steal your ideas!
    Watching FrogTV because it is better when someone else has to maintain the enclosure!

    Here are some pictures of one my indoor enclosures for my young Frogs. I find these enclosures are ok for inside only. It has mesh on the top which must not get wet as they can rust. This tanks is 60cm H by 45 w by 45 D. Its good for my Frogs that love to climb and sit up high. I have a mix of live and fake plants. The frogs love to climb around on the vines. I have lots of living moss which my Frogs love to sit on.

    I posted an earlier picture of Dumper's (WTF) home, but since removed the PVC pipes for a more natural look.

    Dumper's 20gal high tank was built from 2 standard 10gal tanks stacked on top of each other with the glass removed. This allows for two distint areas he can move freely through. The bottom half contains a partial false bottom, homemade rain curtain and a small pond. This is the cooler wet area. The top half contains mossy ledges on both sides and lots of vines and fake plants to climb and hide.

    The other tank (also 20gal modular) was built by my gf for the green tree frogs and contains a homemade bridge, waterwall and lots of vines, plants and a ledge on the second level (not shown as it's still a WIP). They got the upgrade last night and have been very noisy since. I think it's because of the running water and one of them climbed into it and decided he was going to "quack" for 5 minutes straight. it was cute at first...

    Jade, our new new female WTF is currently only in a 10gal but it's 3 times the size she was in at the pet store and has lots of hiding spaces and perching areas. When the two are able to be united, I will be adding this tank to Dumpers creating a 30 gallon modular with some type of side opening panel.

    I too spent the weekend re-doing my frog's enclosure! I found a Zoo Med 12x12x18 terrarium (the one John recommended) and went to town.

    I was thinking of doing just that with my set up putting 2 ten gallons together, but wasn't sure if it would work and I see it does...how do you get the bottom out without breaking it and do you have to seal the two together with something? Here is my set up, I just started only on week one so I wasn't sure if my tank is too busy or not...lol
    what do you all think?
    She is in there hiding behind the front rock on the far left, can't see her... pretty sure she is a she I read males are smaller and have black spot on their neck?
