Good 10 Gallon tank Herp?

nuts4herps Aug 21, 2008 03:39 PM

A friend of mine recently purchased a baby turtle (illegally sold, well under minimum size for sale) which died very soon after it's purchase because of a vatamin A difficency that it probably picked up from poor care at the store it was bought from (i tried to warn her).

She bought a 10 gallon tank to take care of it now and was going to move it to a large bin when he got larger. So now she's got a 10 gallon tank with a lot of extra stuff sitting around. Does anyone know of a good aquatic or semi-aquatic candidate to replace her turtle? possibly a very small turtle species if there are any or some kind of aquatic frog salamander or something that would be happy in that size tank for at least a year or two. I'd rather not have her stuck with boring fish.

A pair of fire-bellied toads would be fine in a 10gal.
