New and would like some opinions :o)

I do actually have a filter in there. It's a fluval 2. It's on the left back side of the tank under the rocks I'm glad I built it right. I did a lot of research and looking at other tanks that other people did before building mine. I'm going to pick up a couple more aquatic plants when I get the fire bellies. The tank is 20 gallons so how many do you think I can house in there? I was thinking maybe 3? Also, i was possibly thinking of buying a few guppies to put in the water part as it's deep enough that they would be ok in there and if the frogs feed on them, I'm ok with that.

According to http://www.frogforum.net/toad-care-a...relatives.html, a 40 liters (10 gallons), could easily accommodate 5-6 FBT...!!

As for fish, I inquired about them a month ago, for my enclosure. One of the concerns was that they could get eaten by the FTB. As for guppies, I'm not sure (because of the toxins). These are the species that I was suggested:

1. Cherry Barbs (by Rocko actually on this thread);
2. White cloud mountain minnows;

I suggest dwarf aquatic plants, you can get a few of them for the water area and the water quality will definitely benefit. As far as fish go, a couple of minnows might fit, but boy I have found those things will breed like bonkers. Maybe neon tetras given the size of your water area, although I can't say I'm an expert on their breeding behaviors. If you would just like something entertaining in your water area, consider a snail or perhaps a shrimp, both of which will aid in cleaning duties.

I do keep cherry barbs in my water area,

although my fbt while in a 10 gallon tank is heavily in favor of water area and they seem to appreciate the added room.

Oh, shrimp would be cool in there! I read that fbt eat guppies so I thought they could do a dual purpose...entertaining and food...lol.

You want to be careful with eating fish. Most cheap feeder fish have potential parasites.
