    Very nice. What kind of frogs are you keeping in there?

    Well, I consider this my 'wunzies' tank. I have two male Powderblues, one female Azureus, 2 green sips (sex unk), 1.2 Leucomelas. At one point, I had placed 2 female Cobalts in this tank, but they were overly aggressive to the other females and I had to remove them again. I watch this tank closely for two reasons - it's quite beautiful, and I'm very diligent in noticing changes in the frogs' behavior. My oldest frogs, Fred (Powderblue) and Bertha (Azureus) have been with me since the beginning, making them at least 8yrs old. The youngest are probably about a yr old.

    I do not condone mixing species/morphs unless the hobbyist experienced and is fully aware of the consequences, those being dead frogs due to stress, and/or hybrid frogs, which are worthless. I've been very lucky that this group gets along well. After Stanton takes ownership of one of the Cobalts, I'll still have a 'wunzie', and she'll have to stay in her own tank, cuz she doesn't play well with others. If she only had a home.....

    Well, I'm sure you will sell her once it gets cooler. I know I've held off buying any frogs right now due to the heat. I wouldn't want to risk it.

    Thank you very much! It has a lot of growing in to do, plus some additional planting. The frogs are very fat and they appear very content. I have a few more photos I need to upload showing the pond in the Malaysian driftwood on the left side of the tank, and Fred's butt on the curly vine next to a large brom. It's funny warm/fuzzy - both Fred and Bertha are very comfortable around me....ribbit....

    I really dig that tank! Big tanks always inspire me. I still can't decide what I like more. unleashing the creative beast in me and building tanks, or keeping the frogs that inhabit them. Its piety equal in the end

    Can't argue that - I've never wanted to see winter so bad as I do now. We haven't had any rain to speak of since February, thereabouts, and we are NOT used to this. The heat puts a screeching halt on anything outdoors ~
