well first off im really new to the world of frogs and terrariums, even though i always wanted to do a terrarium just never had space and my mom wouldnt let me. now im with my family (2 daughters and girlfriend). well over the past 2 weeks i made a small terrarium 10 gal tank, few live plants, artificial vines and plants, hiding spot, organic potting soil over a 1inche layer of stones for draining. i bought a book on terrariums and tree frogs and after 2 weeks and the plants did not die, and temp and humidity is great, i went with a red eye tree frog which i bought from petco. my question is i want to build a stand for the tank, as of now it sits on my kitchen counter. i was planning on building and entertainment center style stand with tv on top and components off to the side. but in the middle i would like to place my current tank and then make a spot for a 55 gallon im acquiring tonight and make that into a bigger terrarium (when i feel confident enough to setup a better one). im planning on doing that with a plexiglass front door so my kids cant hit or get at the actual setups. i was wondering if this was a good idea or will it be to stressful for the frog/frogs depending if i build another setup. any feed back will be deeply appreciated. sorry so long thank you
