A real terrarium would be better for air circulation;in my case,I only had an acquarium and I keep my ABF in it having an open (but meshed) lid I built by myself and the situation is not bad at all.

The problem of Exo Terra, is that you can only put a depth of 14cm maximum of substrate, even for a 90x45x45.
If you want your frog to estivate (2 months per year for example), and if it is a male, it will not be sufficient.
This is why I think Exo Terra's are better if it is a female...

i saw this exo terra 90x45x45 and it sounds good....estivation is necessary? a frog can survive good also without estivation?

If stabulation parameters are good and stable,maybe the frog won't estivate simply 'cos she won't need it.In the wild estivation is a behavior due to long term hot & dry...so,in captivity,there would not be that need.
(P.S.:ciao,sono su questo forum da un po' perchè in America la Pyxie è molto più allevata e conosciuta che da noi,quindi,se vuoi imparare...a presto )

ok...thanks for all answers

(si infatti ho notato, sui forum italiani consigliano tutti i tappetini riscaldanti, invece mi trovo molto meglio con la lampada...mi manderesti un pm con tutti i dati del tuo terrario e della tua pixie? cosi giusto per scambiarci qualche info grazie)

guys, another question...

my frog stays a lot of time in his dig, he stays always in substrate (except for feeding)...my frog goes in water dish only in the evening and probably only to make poop...its good?
