urokeeper:

i keep my 3 big frogs in a plastic 3-drawer cabinet type thing that i got for 17 bucks. i keep them on coconut fibre, and i use a big heat lamp, aimed towards the middle/bottom of the enclosure and that keeps the temps correct and doesnt dry out the drawers. and of course, they all have water dishes. i light them with one of those plant/aquarium flourescent lights and natural light from the window.



azn:

before i started making my videos, i was occassionally feeding my pyxie frozen pinkies, and the pacmen were getting crickets. Jabba didn't like to eat much of anything at all though, he was scared of my tongs, so i couldn't dangle fish, frozen mice, mealworms or anything in front of him to get his attention, and he just wasnt interested in catching crickets, so i tried giving him a live fuzzy because it moved on its own, and was nutrient dense, because he hadnt been eating enough and needed a boost for sure. same story with Elton, pretty much, though he wasn't as afraid of tongs, he just didnt like to take food from them often. and of course, my pyxie will eat anything.

so, that's how i got my frogs to eat mice, i gave them live ones. if you have access to live pinkies and fuzzies, give it a shot. it sounds like Tank is big enough to take a pinky.
