    Just make sure your floors will handle all the newly added weight. Don't need a lower level catching some frogs for you :-)
    Nice buy on the tanks too. If I had that many, I'd be back outside in the igloo which unfortuantely for me has already melted down and the WiFi connection has shorted out.

    We're now allowed pets (Except for one 5 gallon tank and a cat) so out of the 5 tanks I have running, three have to leave for home inspections and that just happens to be the heaviest ones. They know I do the planted tanks and the darts would be fine with them but the larger frogs and crickets would be an issue. Luckily they only come twice a year and I take the frogs in for "bring your frogs to work day" when they do come. My boss gets a kick out of it and the crickets put everyone to sleep.

    40 B is a lovely tank but I prefer the taller versions (such as a 65). The problem is the dimensions make getting a good lid hard. Especially if you need to customize it for, say, a dart frog terrarium.

    Craigslist is always my down fall for impulse tank buys. Just because they are great deals I'll pick them up not knowing who they are going to be homes for.

    As for the drinking problem...Good for you brother! I think my pet addiction has contributed to my girl's drinking problem.

    The first 0 is the male, the second 0 is for the females and the last 0 is those that are too young to tell. The species name should be italicized and then you can put the common name after it. The common name is not italicized. So it would look like this:

    1.1.2 Dendrobates tinctorius 'Azureus'

    One boy, one girl and 2 juvies
