    Got An Empty Tank...

    I have a 24in. long, 12in. wide, and 18in. tall aquarium (approx.) that used to be an old fish tank. I'm looking for a cool amphibian or reptile to put in it that would be happy in an enclosure that size. I'm want something not too difficult to care for that is different than what I already have (snakes,geckos). I'm really leaning towards some type of tree frog, but was wondering- does anyone have any other suggestions they think would fit the description?

    Thanks!

    Green tree frog? Maybe a living viv for some dart frogs?

    I have the old fish tank lid for it that has only a couple holes in it, so humidity wouldn't be so hard to keep with that lid. I think a pixie might be a bit too big for the tank, but I love pacmans!

    Anyone have any experience with red eyed tree frogs, what do you think of them?

    I don't know much about amphibians, but my roommate's been talking about getting a Mantella frog or poison dart frog - he's had them before, and says they're super cool!
