Default Re: Can a Frog tank/Vivarium be too big?

Groups of leucs do best, IMO, in groups of slightly male heavy populations. think 5.4 or or 6.4 or something in your 300 gallon.

When I built my leuc tank, I put in a terraced false stone waterfall with lots of hide holes. Between that, the terraced "shelves" and the broms, they use the entire area. I also incorporated a lot of hide holes, both on the ground floor and elevated. They all utilize the upper hides, each sleeping in the same "hole" every night.

And as was stated, male heavy is way to go. I would go 4.2 or 5.2 myself, but that is being pretty conservative.
