I’ve been planning this build for a while and I’m so happy to finally share the result with all of you! I hope enjoyed it and let me know what you would like to see next time!
I love SerpaDesign videos and I’ve been lookin for other TH-camrs with similar editing styles and then I found you on my feed tonight. I’m subscribing right now ! Great video :)
Tanner is a big inspiration for me! Obviously my content is inspired by his, but I make it a big point to give it my own flavor. Happy to hear you enjoyed the video! :)
Yes! I do plan on adding isopods, but my colony isn’t that big as of now and I’ll be getting some more next week. But as the frogs like to eat anything that moves I’m not sure how long they will last in there.
It looks really good brother man! I have 7 fire bellied toads my self. They are wonderful frogs. I just sold 60 babies to my childhood mom and pops pet store! I never intended to breed them but they mated all summer long!
Great build! You should be wearing safety glasses using the wire brush attachments. I use those at work and often have pieces of the wire stuck in my coveralls.
@@albertsrour8687 this is one of those projects where I noticed that my skills are developing. I’m not sure if my creativity is limitless (although I love the way that sounds haha) I do feel like I keep progressing and plan on continuously improving my husbandry and enclosure design.
I'd be very interested to learn where you managed to procure your egg-crate light diffuser. I spent over a month trying to source the stuff for a decent price, but the cost for one piece was honestly outrageous and I ended up just stacking my hard-scape out of rock and gravel (and glue).
I love what you did and would love to see an update in 6 months. Most builds I watch like this wait a few weeks or months before adding any animals. I would be curious what problems, if any, you encounter.
There are a couple of reasons why you generally want to let a tank mature before adding animals. Allowing the plants to grow in a bit will make it less likely they get trampled by the animals. These frogs aren’t that big so I don’t worry too much about that. Also in general you should wait at least two weeks before adding fish/shrimp to the water. This will allow bacteria to grow that will break down the waste of the animals, otherwise they might get poisoned by their own waste. I my case I let the filtermedia sit in an established aquarium for a month prior to building this tank, so all the necessary bacteria are already present from day one. Still it’s best practice to wait a bit. I’ll definitely make an update video in a couple months to show how the tank has been developing.
Great work! I just notice (i could be totally wrong) but did you sand the glass? Cut glass is REALLY SHARP you can get cut or the animales inside de tank, is better to sand it with a wet sandpaper
Is it bad that I'm jealous of the frogs?? I wish I could have a little habitat like that to myself LOL~ It looks amazing! A beautiful little paradise! I have a dumb but genuine question though: do you ever have to worry about mold on the cork or the foam pads?
Hahaha if you can find a shrink ray you are welcome to live in there! I hope you like to eat crickets. As for the mold: that’s why I added springtails. They will take care of any mold and frog waste in the tank.
Sorry if you answered this somewhere already, but did you not need to seal any of the foam parts? I’ve seen a lot online about people insisting on using drylok over the parts they build with expanding and blocks of foam, but now I’m wondering if it’s actually necessary?
@@ntayjohnson as far as I understand the drylok is purely an aesthetic choice. XPS foam and (some) sprayfoams are completely fine to use in your aquarium. When buying the spray foam go for something that’s marketed as being pond safe or aquarium safe and you’ll be fine.
Technically the true Frog family is the family Ranidae (Related To (Rana) Frog), with true frogs being the genus Rana that is the Latin word for Frog. The true Toad family is the family Bufonidae (Related To (Bufo) Toad), with true Toads being the genus Bufo that is the Latin word for Toad. Everything else is just colloquially a "Frog" or a "Toad", so can be referred to as either or. Fire belled "toads" aren't very closely related to true Frogs or true Toads, but are colloquially call Toads based on there superficial more true Toad like appearance, Fire bellied toads of the genus Bombina (Hummer) are a very basal (primitive) group of Anura (Tailless), and are very closely related to to the genus Barbourula (Little-strange) that are referred to as being Flat headed frog but also the Jungle toad, both being in the family Bombinatoridae (Related To (Bombinator) Hummer), Bombinator is a variant of Bombina meaning the same thing, to Hum, to Buzz. So if it's in the genus Rana it's 100% a Frog, and best to refer to it's closest relatives in family Ranidae (Related To (Rana) Frog) as frogs. If it's in the genus Bufo it's 100% a Toad, and best to refer to it's closest relatives in family Bufonidae (Related To (Bufo) Toad) as Toads. Anything elses in the order Anura (Tailless) can be referred to as being a "Frog" or "Toad" in common name.
@@Ons_TV All Toads aren't Frogs. The order name Anura, that they all belong mean Tailless, not Frog, not Toad. All in the genus Rana are true Frogs. All in the genus Bufo is a true Toads. Everything else is colloquially a "Frog" or "Toad".
I’ve been planning this build for a while and I’m so happy to finally share the result with all of you! I hope enjoyed it and let me know what you would like to see next time!
This is my favorite tank you’ve built!
@ thank you so much!! Glad to hear you like it! :D
Hey just to let you know zebra danios can get very aggressive so I would watch out for that other wise nice tank
@@Fish-l7nI didn’t know that! Thanks for the advice!
14:20 I love the clumsy ahh frog struggling to hold steady😭🫶
Hahaha yes! That’s so cute! I love these clumsy little goofballs
Absolutely breathtaking.it looks so real !!😊
Thank you! :)
What a paludarium bro, I love your design and the way you edit your video !
A good inspiration !
Thank you! Happy to hear you enjoyed the video :)
I had fire bellies in my 20’s built them a 1/2 wet/dry enclosure, nowhere near as advanced lol, loved them so much
They’re adorable little goofballs!
Such a high quality video and super fun to follow. Also really impressive how good you are at improvising!
Thank you so much! I’m to hear you liked it! :)

🤩 It is incredible!
Thank you! 😊
One of my favourite builds ❤
Wow! Thank you so much! :D
I looove the frogs and shrimp !!! Would you recommend isopods as well if they're big enough to not get swallowed by the froggies?
Yes! I do plan on adding isopods, but my colony isn’t that big as of now and I’ll be getting some more next week. But as the frogs like to eat anything that moves I’m not sure how long they will last in there.
Oh your just showing off at this point 😂nice work man!
Hahah happy you like it!
What an amazing video! and the build couldn't have turned out better. Keep up the good work!
Thank you very much! :)
Dam thats a nice waterfall
Thank you very much
It looks really good brother man! I have 7 fire bellied toads my self. They are wonderful frogs. I just sold 60 babies to my childhood mom and pops pet store! I never intended to breed them but they mated all summer long!
Thank you! Sounds like your frogs are really happy! Would be awesome if mine eventually had some babies too :)
Seriously next level. Well done man.
@@WorldofWhasian thank you so much bro 🙌🏼
Great build! You should be wearing safety glasses using the wire brush attachments. I use those at work and often have pieces of the wire stuck in my coveralls.
Yeah you’re definitely right. I think a respirator (or at least a face mask) also wouldn’t be an unnecessary luxury 😅
What a beautiful project
Thank you :)
Turned Out Amazing!🐸🐸🐸
Thanks bro! :)
Beautiful!!!
Thank you!! Happy you like it
@CrunchyFern your creativity is limitless man!

Maturiting is part of the process of creating!
@ definitely
this one turned out really great
Thank you! :)
Looks incredible
Thank you! :)
This is amazing and I love how you showed us everything you did to set it up.
Thank you very much!
4:30 the frogs won’t be able to open it 😂
While making this I was a bit afraid the magnets wouldn’t be strong enough to contain the frogs haha 😭 😂
@@CrunchyFern if they all teamed up mabey😂
@ that would be a hilarious nightmare hahaha
That's so excellent. Give me ideas to do my own
Glad you like the video! Good luck with your tank
wow, that looks realy amazing! very cool.
Thank you very much!

It wasn’t really cheap. I think I paid €25 for a 120x60 cm piece? Something like that. I found it in a salt water aquarium store.
It looks amazing!!!!
Thank you!! :)
Super nice 👍
Thanks bro!
Jij hebt goed naar sherpa design gekeken hé, goed bezig!
Dankjewel
Nice Job!

Heel mooi gedaan! Ik benoem je hierbij tot the Dutch Serpa 😉
I humbly accept that title
You outscaped some of the tanks I've seen on Serpa Design. Great job
Damn! That’s a big compliment! Thank you 🙏🏻
Are those Korean fire bellied toads? Really nice home you built for them!
Yes! juveniles. Thank you!
