Hey everyone,
New to the forums here and I realize this isn't the introductions forum, but I also have a brief question.
In short I'm interested in what size/type of tank would be good for someone looking to start the hobby slowly.
I'm not looking to own frogs anytime soon, I've owned many plants in the past and I feel bad enough when one of them dies that I think I'd feel way worse if I killed a frog, so I'm trying to get everything as right as it can be. That and I can't guarantee someone would be able to care for the frogs in the next few years.
So my goal is to set up a very lifelike vivarium that is as close as possible to self sustaining as I can get it. I've already decided I want a false bottom and some running water and I'm thinking a kind of layered LECA and sphagnum moss substrate and a foam background.
I'm still just in the planning phase so nothing is set in stone, so I'd love any input some of you guys/gals have to offer!
Best,
Synapse
