the only use for a bottom like that is for breeding. and that tank is WAY too small for two frogs,look how big that one is. It is a nice tank,but not suited for greens one bit. poor guys.

People do that when they care more about how the tank looks than the wellbeing of the frog. I hate to say it, but at one point I was almost the same way. People tend to start out aiming more at form than function. It's a very sad thing for the animals involved.

There are two types of people in this world, good and bad. The good sleep better, but the bad seem to enjoy the waking hours much more.

Whitney,
Thanks for your post."Form follows Function"! I have been following these forums for awhile and trying to decide RETF or Darts. RETF is winning out. I must remember that "Golden Rule" when setting up. I do want Darts but I have soo...many tanks (fish) now that I feel like a pet store. I may have been looking at to many Dart tank set-ups. Your post brought me back into focus. Thanks!
