American Toad Vivarium | 5.5 Gallon Vivarium

Surprisingly baby toad likes to be where the hanging plants are planted.
A 5 gallon enclosure should not be a permanent for a American toad! You should increase their enclosure size as they get bigger. 20 Gallon enclosure is the minimum size for a adult.
If you choose to use the same substrate mix make sure to use rocks/pebbles and bark that can not fit in the toads mouth.
🍂 Substrate 🍂 :
2 parts coco fiber / coir
1 part Bark
1 part pea gravel (menards seems cheapest)
1 part dirt
I would suggest a mix of 50/50 of soil and coco fiber.
I heated up soil to try an kill any potential pests.
A lot of these plants are I'm just testing.
🌱 Plants 🌱 :
Marble queen pothos
Satin Pothos
Arrowhead plant
Thyme
Brandi philodendron
Ledebouria sociallis
Moss (2 types)
Peter Pan Ivy
Oak leaf creeping fig
Creeping Jenny (i think what the left hanging plant is called)
How I grew the moss myself:

It;s a beautiful set up, perfect for a baby toad. Mine guy is 4 inches I have learned that toads need 4-5 inches of dirt/substrate because they like to burrow. Mine really hides sometimes. I just got him a 3 ft x 2 ft terrarium and your video has given me some ideas. He needs more play room! 🥰

Nice set up. I have the same frog lol I found him today in one of my houseplants that I bought from the nursery, (over a month ago). Little guy has been hiding out until I watered my plant for the first time since buying it. He jumped out and scared the living crap out of me. Lol

Planning on getting a toad soon, love the setup. You sure know what you're doing!

[@dblasig12]

best video ever

[@foxxgirl0715]

This is so cute but if those plants are live then the roads will most likely kill them. They are known to do extreme home makeovers😂

[@ijsvrouwtje]

Heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeel mooie !

[@mrs.wags8429]

Awesome setup! I would make the setup larger as the toad grows tho.

[@ItsToadTasticFrog]

Just telling you it will be a nightmare finding that little guy in such A large tank

[@mariaboyle-shaw6826]

What's the foam stuff

[@stonemesquit5766]

@littleblueoctopus what's the name of the foam and the netting you used. Also are those rocks anything special or just some rocks you got

[@majakos197]

How often do you need to clean it?

[@ItsToadTasticFrog]

He probably almost an adult now though so lol

[@southernnathaniel]

I need that tank so I can keep my lepord frog in

[@kimberlywright6127]

You need a lid because he can get out very easily
