Hi I used to post on this site a long time ago inquiring about information. So I'm not totally new. I currently have 2 tanks open for viv transformation. One is a 55 gallon 4 foot and the other is a 29 gallon 3 ft. I'm looking at two different tincs the Azureus and the Regina. Exactly how much room do the frogs need to be sufficiently happy? If a 2 foot area is sufficient I can use a divider and keep both species in the in the 55. If I have to chose just one it would be the azureus though. I plan on only keeping a pair or trio and don't want multiple tanks. I just got finished with having fish, so I learned my lesson quickly. Whatever the outcome I plan on having a false bottom. I have a fixture that already has 6500k T5's I can use for lighting. I have stands for both. I also have a reverse osmosis device so the water will be nice and pure. Of course, I will have to deactivate the DI portion of the unit.
Besides culturing FF I think pdf will be a lot easier to maintain and move if the occasion arises. I just plan on doing tons of research, and build the viv before I purchase the frogs I settle on. I've talked to the local herp store and they don't order frogs until after it gets warmer here, for their safety.( I live in WI) The person running the store has being in the business for quite a while and has many satisfied customers I know personally. I also spent about 2 hours talking to the guy without purchasing anything and all of his animals look healthy. SO any input you could add would be greatly appreciated.
