A Garter Staple - the Amazing Pacific Chorus Frog

[Steven@HumboldtHerps]

those are very cool frogs - amazing variety
when you say "success in raising" what exactly do you mean?
do you breed the parents, or do you collect spawn or tadpoles and raise them?

I have done both. They are quite easy once you have a good set-up. I feed the frogs flies, fruit flies (from the compost!), crickets, waxworms, and small earthworms. The tadpoles need a constant supply of algae, but will graze on algae wafers. I keep my tank outside in part sun/part shade. Tadpoles will often bask in the shallows where the water is warmer. I always however have to monitor the temperature during the summer (I simply offer more shade if it's too warm). There is a 10 gal. tank filled with rocks and then soil substrate that I put inside the large tank; I also have floating cork and local aquatic plants. The tank is 3/5 water, 2/5 land.

Do you happen to have a photo of that set-up you could post?
