Whites tree frogs

[brnbear]

I currently have one white's tree frog in a ten gallon tank. He is still rather small (around the size of my thumb) and I was thinking about adding another frog to the tank so he would have a friend but I wasn't sure if ten gallons is enough for both of them? However, soon I think I am going to get a twenty gallon tank. Any thoughts?

Two small ones will do well in a 10 gallon. Two adults would do well in a 20 gallon. However...I would go for a 20 tall, if you're using standard aquariums. Height is better.

Okay thank you very much. One more question...about how fast will the frog grow? I know there are a lot of variables but could you give me a pretty average growth estimation?

I got my first frog in August 2008. He was maybe an inch long. Very small. In March 2009, I bought another one to put in with him, and that new one was a couple inches and had a pretty good weight to him. By July or August, I knew I needed to get them a bigger cage than the 12x12x18 cage they were in (which is about the same space as a 10 gallon).

So...within a year, I needed to upgrade.

Okay, thank you very much for your help. I think I will buy another dumpy and keep them in the ten gallon for as long as possible and then buy a twenty gallon. Thanks again.
