Mossy frog or milk frog?

[Eric Walker]

a 20 will be way to small for mossies unless they are froglets.

Alrighty, then. What's the minimum cage size for one adult mossy frog?

[Eric Walker]

Something in the dimension of a 30 breeder would be good. When they jump they do it with quite a bit of force and could knock themself silly without enough room

Sounds good. Socrates is offering to sell me his mossy frog group, so I hope he's fairly close to where I live.

[Teh Frog Whisperer]

Never mind-he lives over in Chicago.

I'm thinking about getting an Exo-Terra 18"x18"x24" terrarium for the frog. I calculated the volume, and it turned out to be around 33 gallons. What kinds of plants can I put into that size tank?

Just as an example, I have a 33 gallon Exo Terra and I have a bromeliad and two snake plants in either corner. You can check out pics in my Viv Setup/s album if you want a visual reference. Lots of plants are good for that size viv though, as it can look pretty large with nothing in it and has a lot more floor space than I thought it would. Just make sure to check out what types of plants are good for Milks or Mossies when you decide which frog to get, that's always helpful. I have White's in my tank so I had to choose strong leafed plants that would hold up the weight of my fat frogs. XD

Typically mossy frogs are kept thirty gallon tanks that have a large water feature; anywhere from 1/2 to 2/3's of the horizontal space should be occupied by water. Milk frogs, however, do not require the large amount of water, and need taller tanks. This kind of ruins the split tank set-up. milks may need warmer temperatures as well, but I can't recall. If you had a +50 size tank you might be able to get away with a breeding pair of mossy frogs and a single milk frog, but don't take my word for it.
I personally am setting up a mossy vivarium; I've wanted them ever since I first laid eyes on them.

Both are lovely frogs....i was having the same question, which one should i get 1st?
Sadly, i can not find Mossy in my local shop, it has only 1 single lonely mike frog....
