This is a ground dwelling tree frog, just to let you know.

I need some good setup ideas and food.

I've been keeping them for all my life, but only got down to a simple setup and a diet of only flies :)

These are froglets and or frogs I'm talking about here

Cheers
Zac

Hi there!

I'm only new to keeping bell frogs but I'll just share with you my set up.

Grown Frogs:
The tank has fish tank pebbles covering the ground. I have a couple of plants embedded in the pebbles and a large rock as well as a few smaller ones. I have a fake house for the frog to hide inside and a large branch reaching diagonally from the bottom of the right corner to the top of the left corner. She really likes climbing up the branch! For food, she eats moths, blow flies, crickets and locusts.

Froglets:
These have basically the same set up. I have a couple more hiding places for them and they eat smaller insects like fruit flies and normal house flies.

Tadpoles:
I had a gravel filter and half a tank of water and fed them goldfish flakes and oxygen weed.

I have golden bell frogs (Litoria aurea) and Southern bells (L. raniformis).

    with axolotls would I basically have to keep buying and buying new axolotls to prevent inbred breeding which costs a lot of money??

    Not necessarily but if you’re wanting to continue to grow your breeding capacity then yes. Breeding axolotls isn’t a cheap hobby nor is it a get rich quick scheme. It costs a lot of money and time and deditcation

    Would Chinese fire belly newts be more or less inclined towards an aquatic eft set up versus Japanese . I'm raising them and have abandoned the terrarium at about 5 months old and switched to the aquatic setups you describe. I'm wondering if I could do this as soon as they morph?
