kcaiman Feb 14, 2004 12:53 PM

I was planing of getting a few tanks to house at least 2 or 3 frogs in each. what would be the best size, i relise that 15 would be too small for 3. would 25s be best for 3 and 15s be good for pairs? Also i was thing of putting a type of tinc in one of the tanks. what size do you guys/gals think would be best? thanks for any suggestions

I like to do 10 gallons for pairs, and 15 gallons for three could possibly work, depending on the type of frog. The general rule of thumb is 5 gallons for frog, and then some to help relieve the territorial stress. With the tincs, just make sure you watch the sexes, due to the females fighting, as you've probably heard about already. I think i would recommend a 20 gal, possibly long, for what you are desiring. Then again, it's my opinion, and opinions are like armpits: everyone has a couple, and they stink! haha
