    I love cane toads for the creature they are, instead of looking at the damage they have caused. I own two and I keep them in a huge outdoor cage that is 6x4 feet. They love it and thrive! Awesome video! It’s cool to see others taking awesome care of their misunderstood pets.

      Thanks, she's still doing great. I've got some African bullfrogs now that I'll be setting up a paludarium for in the future. fyi all my future videos will be on my new channel - ua-cam.com/channels/WAfJ7qJMldGu5mfWPUDKfQ.html

      They fall on a line of unnerving and cute for me. Once one sat on on my windowsill and stared into my room for a couple minutes. They’re so weird

    That tank looks amazing! Cane toads always get a bad rap for the damage they do in Australia, but they're really great when put in an environment they can do no harm. I can't wait until I get one someday!

      Those are waterfall filters. Usually something you'd use for shallow water for turtles and so on. Relatively inexpensive

      Thanks, I think if I had a pixie I'd make the water area deeper, and probably go half land half water, but yes this would work great. Only problem I'm facing is that I need to get some foam to put around the filter to keep substrate out.

      @@yehudanissimsilverman8883 at first I had cocofiber substrate in there but took all of it out since she didn’t like it and spent her time in the water, now I have a mix of various sizes smooth river rocks (they sell them for turtles) and have them at different heights and she loves it! First time she was in the all water tank she was so excited and she’s so happy now! The water is only about 5 gallons in a 75 gallon tank so she’s not like drowning or anything, it’s more swamp like if anything

    A true bioactive setup always has to have bugs that degrade dead animal and plant matter, so that the plants can reuse it, making it a perfect cycle.
