Default Froglet Housing

Hello Fellow Enthusiasts,

My leucs and azureus are kicking out large numbers (for me) of apparently healthy froglets now, and have been for a maybe 6 months. I have around 70 tads of various stages, and as they morph out, I am moving the froglets into individual rubbermaid shoeboxes and stacking them. Space is at a premium in my house - I have my display tanks in different rooms, and a rack in my den that is now running on "full" with the stacks of rubbermaids, tad cups, supplies, etc.

I want to move the froglets that are a bit farther along (2-3 months) into a community environment; at least the leucs. Would it be a problem to house the azureus froglets together for awhile (separate from the leucs), until I am ready to unload them?

I tried doing various searches on "froglet setups", "froglet housing", etc, but cannot seem to find the right thread. I am interested in seeing people's froglet housing, and also hearing about people's "system" of moving frogs to appropriate housing based on age, species, size, etc..

And as always, thanks a million!

Greg L.

Usually, 1 per container, or 5+ in a larger tank/container.

The theory of 5+ in a group is that with a number that big, no one frog gets picked on or left out etc.
