sorry that was a typo the small pond in our front yard is 200-300 gallons, but our koi pond which gets the most toad and frog activity is 4000-5000 gallons and has a stream running into it. I really like the dwarf cattails and also last year got a couple varigated leafed cattails , they are dwarf too and dont spread as much. The varigated iris is another good edge plant. The toads have spawned around all of these plants. I took a clump of eggs inside into an aquarium, and now they hatched and have several hundred tiny tadpoles, will post some picts later this evening
