    I just have never seen any Pipid frog swallow gravel or even come close to swallowing it.

    My other two never had a problem with it. Maybe it was a female thing???

    So what do I use as a substrate for fire bellied toads? I need something that works as dry land and wont ruin the water area at the "beach" meeting between the two.

    Hybridize. You will be hard pressed to find an all in one substrate that will meet your needs.

    Since fire bellies only need around an inch or so of water, a standard terrestrial substrate with a large water dish will work fine. If you prefer a more involved set up, there is at least two threads on here involving firebelly enclosures with pictures and tons of information.

    Yes I've seen those. One suggested gravel mixed with epoxy and covered in moss. How does that sound to you?
