the tought of getting a large tank was playing a long time in my head and now i've got it. i chose a tank (cm) 100*50*70. the frogs that i want to house in it are amazonicus and my couple aff. hahneli.

then the works could start, first i've build a closet.

tank arrived

hidden the pump and heater.

placed the wood and rocks

now was the question is the stream going to run like i wanted and yes.

a few days later my plants arrived and the tank could be finished.

some pic of the plants

Mixing in Europe is not as big a 'no-no' as it is in the US. To each his own, right?

indeed i think that there is a big difference in keeping darts in europe and in america.
i know several people who have combinations in their tanks and both species breed so what's the problem then? if the frogs don't be agressive to another species then i don't have any problems with it.

thanks for the comments.
I placed my group of amazonicus in the tank on sunday and yesterday i found clutches everywhere. but they all gone bad, first time they breed.
pictures will be posted in a few weeks so you can see the difference in plant grow.
now i'm looking for a 2.2 ameerega hahneli to place in the tank with the amazonicus.
