i have an empty 20 gallon long fish tank and want to put a frog in there. the frog can not be a jumper or climber because the tank is not very tall
leave any ideas
thanx

Horned frogs and dwarf african bullfrog are good choices. Care for both is pretty much the same. Care instructions can be found on my site the Reptizone listed below.

A horned frog would be a good choice. Technically, if you have one in an average-height aquarium, you could get away without even having a lid. I'd recommend getting a lid anyway though, even if it's just to keep out "predators" (the family dog, kids' hands, etc.) Cuz these frogs can bite...

Hi:

A Budgett's frog is an excellent choice for a 20 gallon; they'd have trouble jumping out of a 5 gallon! In general, most frogs are jumpers and climbers. A horned or a pyxie would work well, but does it really have to be a frog? If you want an amphibian that can live in a 20 gallon without escaping, how about a nice little toad?
