Default A Noob's Introduction

Hey all, been crawling this site for a while, and decided i should probably join. I've kept various herps during my life, mostly just ones i could catch here in Michigan, where i call home. In the last month or so, i set up a viv, in an old 40 gallon long, for some good ol' american toads! I currently have 2 living in there, along with all sorts of house plants i found on sale at Wal-Mart I'm just starting to get out of the freshwater scene, after several years of that, so I also happen to have a 20 gallon long gathering dust, so if anyone has any suggestions for a good setup for it, I would love to here them So, after such a lengthy introduction, I guess i will say good bye!

cp meaning carnivorous plant? That sounds pretty cool. I was just thinking something simple/cheap, but once my first paycheck shows up, maybe i'll be leaning towards something more high-tech. I was also thinking about making it a vert, because of how short it is. I guess i just gotta keep doing my homework, lol. Well, thanks for the suggestion!

a 20l is perfect for darts. if you were to decide to go that route it would be a good idea to start a thread in the dart forum.

Really? without being vertical? That's great! i guess i was under the impression that darts were "tree frogs" and preferred to be higher up. I guess i have a lot of learning to do! knowing that, i just might look into darts a little closer, thanks!
