    hahaha yes of course inches :lol:

    and yes it doesn't go for all frogs, waxys for instance have pads only when in mood.

    I think at 4" size it's safe to say it is a girl it is hard to wrap my head around the fact that she was 1" 2 month ago. I think if she grow any more I'll need to upgrade her to 18x18x18 mansion right now she is already taking majority of empty space in 12x12x18. my kids are calling her red pancake with 2 berries on top (eyes).
    Save one animal and it doesn't change the world, but it surely changes the world for that one animal!

    Female Ornata can easily hit 5.5" to 6" so keep the mansion on standby Lol! A 12"x12"x18" will be too small for her very soon. Go with the 18" cube or a 10 gallon long. I have a 18" cube made into a plant Vivarium, but I will probably be tearing it down to use as a frog enclosure soon. That size will provide ample space for an adult female Ornata.

    Well, one of us has been telling the other (glares) that since the other bought a tank and then put PLANTS in it. Cough Cough. It is kind of sacrilege. Lol!

    hahaha, yeah you're right Namio. I'm happy to upgrade, that would mean i'd have an empty tank for my cornuta when I get her :lol: do you know what size is good for those guys? i think adult cornutas are smaller then ornates and 12x12 should be ok, am i right?

    12x12 would probably be enough for a male Cornuta but may be slightly crowded for an adult female. I'm including the space taken for almost no decoration plus a water bowl. But if you get a baby Cornuta, a 12x12x18 exoterra/zoomed will last you a long while.
