My 20 Gallon Journal

[iceblazer17]

Hey guys, Here is the scoop, I just built a 20 gallon for my Whites tree frog so I can move him out of the 40 Gallon and into the 20 gallon. I am going to pimp out the 40 gallon for some dart frogs which I have yet to buy! Anyways, this is a simple yet effective set-up for my frogs. I wish it was vertical though....Please let me know what you would have done different!

Thanks for the old tank mom! (20 gallon Long)


materials (the ones that i took the time to take pictures for anyways!!!!)
Great Stuff (Home Depot - $3.00) 2 bottles

Coa-Coa Substrate (Pet Store - $10.00) 3 pack of bricks

Coark Board/Wood (Pet Store - $10.00)

Rocks (yard? - FREE!)


Phase 1
First, I set the tank on its side and added great stuff then added rocks, substrate, and coark wood.


Phase 2
Then did the same thing to the side after waiting about 3 days...


Phase 3
I then let it dry for 3 days agian and then added my substrates to the tank and bamboo and moss and everything else ( I wish I had the tank size and money for a water system!!! )




Phase 4
Well now, I am just waiting for the moss to grow in before I put stuff for the frog to climb on and hide in...Any advice or comments would be appretiated! This is my first tank and I wanted to get practice in before I attempt a large scale tank with a waterfall and misting system for some darts...

I will post more pics up once The moss grows in and I add the props and more pants!
