Hello to every body,

I'm a begginer with amphibious, and I have this proyect that I'm doing, I'm building a paludarium in a 75 gallon tank (285 liters I think) and I have a desing draw already but I having some problems traying to build the structure that will hold the plants and a waterfall :eek:, I'm also think to add some underwater caves, for the toads to have access to water, the tank will be half full with water, and I will add some fish and aquatic plants, I was thinkingto use fire belly toads, since I had some experience byt them already o maybe mantella frogs, can some one could give me some tips, and does somebody owns or sales tiger salamanders? are they good with fish?, thank's

Welcome!!

I have been keeping fire belly toads for about....3 weeks now haha.

If you do plan on keeping Fire Belly Toads they must be kept by themselves with no other animals, as FBTs secrete toxins that will kill anything else in the tank (including the toads themselves if you don't clean the tank regularly)
 
Well thanks for the advise, I was planing to add some fish in to the tank and do water changes weekly just 10%, this is the first time I ear that about FBT, I did some research before when I bougth FBT the first time but no body mention that.
thanks

Need some tips to bulid a structure for a paludarium in a 75 gallon tank

Hi there,

Is can some one help mewith tips and stuff that I can use to build the structure for a paludarium in a 75 gallon tank (285 liters):eek:, I need to use some that wont be toxic for toads and fish, the paludarium will be half full with water, I'm planing to do weekly water changes, only 10% add some aquatic plants from my 30 gallon fresh water fully planted tank (java moss, anubias, tiger lili and others), I will also add CO2 (home made 2liter bottle), I'll use regular black dirt (for gardening) maybe clay, and really small gravel.
