So, after about 9th months of owning D. Tinctorius, I believe I was successfully able to sex all four.

The problem here-in, lies that 3 of them seem to be female and 1 male.

Now I knew in advance what I was getting myself into and have two fully established, planted, cycling vivs to keep my Tincs in.

One is 24"x18"x18" and the other is 18"x18"x18"

ATM, all 4 reside together in the larger tank. It's time for this to change.

What would be your recommendations to end up in the "least stressful" pairings. I am considering putting the male (which happens to be the best looking of my frogs) with the largest and most robust female in the 18"x18"x18". Is it safe for the other two females to co-habitate in the larger viv? With it's dimensions, it comes up to roughly 35 gallons. It is densely planted with 4 or 5 planned and spread out hiding spots. Should I be worried about them living in this?
