Hiya everyone. I'm just new here. I have a 20 gallon tank spare, and I'm wondering what is best to put in it!
I'd like to try a reptile/amphibian. The thing is, I'm very queezy about bugs/insects.
Is there any toad/frog/reptile that I can keep in the tank that doesn't eat live food, or is OK without it? I don't mind feeding meat or fish, as long as it's already dead!
I've been researching for about 3 days now, trying to find something I can care for. I'd also love something that can be handled, even if just occasionally.
As I've searched for a pet to keep, the fire-bellied toad has left it's mark on me. They look beautiful!
But I think these toads eat live insects?
Another amphibian I liked was the crested gecko, but the problem with that idea is my tank isn't tall enough, and I've read they prefer more height than length.
Please help! Any ideas are welcome, thank you x
