I am almost finished setting up a simple 10g tank and I really like galacts I was wondering if they would work in a 10g. I also read that they are only classified as intermediate because of breeding and being hard to sex. For a beginner if it can be done do I have to do anything special also I read the do well in groups would 3 work in a 10g I doubt they would I think it would be a squeze. I can find little info on them. If it wont work what should I go for? Ill make a different tank for them in the future then.

Thanks

A pair of galacts will work in a 10g, no more then a pair though. They do very well in groups, I have 4 in an 18x18x18 zoomed and have never seen a problem. They are almost fully matured adults now, they will probably start breeding this summer.

Sexing galacts are pretty difficult to sex. They are also extremely slow growers.

I've worked with between 4-6 galacs in a 36-gallon tank. I have had them for almost 6 years... and the only thing I'm sure of is that there is at least 1 male and at least 1 female in that tank. Beyond that? I've tried to sex them, but its not easy, and I inevitably end up changing my mind multiple times!

This is my tank would they like it? What should I change? If not what other frogs would?
