Probably the wrong section to be posting these pics but here goes..., some of my setups... By the way, the large "empty" exoterra is in progress. I need to carve and do some more glueing of the styrofoam before I can seal it with black silicone and ecoearth. The large exoterra will eventually house my 3 Leptopelis Vermiculatus. And the two desolate looking tanks next to my blue yabbie (crayfish) are my pacman frog tanks (fantasy frog and ornate).

Hello Karen,
I am glad that you are finally showing off your collection.
I really love the time and talent you put to make those terrariums look beautifull.
I am sure your pets love them.

I love your L w terrarium, those blue geckoes are nice and the frogs are also great looking.

you forgot Jorge.

Yeah, I'll echo Celeste's question - what frogs are those? They look like fancy enamel jewelry.

Hello everyone. Thank you for the positive feedback. The enamel jewels are actually Malagasy Rainbow Frogs (Scaphiophryne gottlebei). Mine are kept at room temperature or on the cooler side, and eat small insects (mainly pinheads and one week old crickets). Unfortunately they are a fossorial species so an occasional glimpse of them basking or sitting in a water dish is a delightful treat. They do stress easily though.  ;-) The green frog is a Vietnamese Mossy Frog (Theloderma corticale). I have three of these and they are very hardy, as well as being great for beginners (cool temperature and are very aquatic)! And they love to eat! I am new to the amphibian world and have had some losses, all with WC. I do have only a few T's left and am trying to slowly improve the setups and quality of life for all my pets, which includes slimming down my collection.
