i have always liked these guys but i have a few questions about them...is there any difference in the different locales or a re they all the same just invasive in all these areas? what size enclosure would comfortably house an adult? how big could a really big one get? are there any good websites dedicated to them?

Hi
I just got a Cane Toad on Friday. I've posted a pic of my setup. It's 35" long and 16" wide enclosure. I think I have a male jeuvenile. He's around 4-5" long. I think I could probably house 2 in this size setup. I'm not certain how big they get. They seem to vary. The ones is Australia seem HUGE to the ones that are sold here in the UK.
He was hiding under his rock when the pic was taken I think he's still settling in cuz he hasn't really moved from there. But he's eaten some locusts which I'm quite pleased about.
I have a heat mat attached to one end wall of the tank which get's to around 80deg and a tray of water at the other end.
I've not seen a really good website just dedicated to Cane Toads. I got a lot of my info from books and just searching through Google.
Hope this helps
