    haha i did and even though they are small tanks it still takes up a lot of time, i'm thinking about getting rid of my frogs as well just because it's so hard to keep their tank clean since their constantly pooping and it gets all over the sand and they live in the sand and i worry that they will become unhealthy because of so much poop in their tank. I feel really bad for them, i try to clean as much out as i can but even then it's not good enough. My toads are at least easy cause they only have 1 1/2 gallons of water, and my puffer is easy as well. I just know that i will be spending a lot of time for on my 47 so i will probably eventually do away with the frogs as well, so then i would just have the 47 and the toads

    Do you vacuum the frogs? Or just clean em with your hands? Vacuum could save you some time and do a better job. Though you'll never get away all since the poop will go under the gravel too

    yup, froggers are messy. Remind me of rabbits (you can never keep their enclosures clean).

    i use the vaccum on the frog tank. I have sand as subtrate. And by the time half of the tank is empty i'm not even close to being done with cleaning their tank. So then i have to stop and do refill their tank back up and get what i can with a net, but even then there is still TONS of poop left over, it's really frustrating cleaning their tank, once i get my 47 going i will probably just do away with the frogs and send them to petco.

    i've never had rabbits before, but frogs are completley impossible to keep their tank clean. My toads are so much easier to do, the only thing i don't like about the toads are the crickets, i hate having to constantly give them food and their container is always so gross of poop and dead crickets, but their's always to many crickets in the container to be able to clean it. But the toads themselves are super easy.

    <--grammy had bunnies...we're horrid. Males would jump and pee and could hit a "target" several feet away. I'd change their cage daily and it would be nasty within hours. Poo pellets every freaking where...not to mention the smell..Ugh!
    That's one pet I'd never do imo.
