Let me know what you think about this set up. I am new to this and want any opinions available.
Thank you * 20 g long (1/3 land 2/3 aquatic) * Waterfall (filtered) * pump & filter for extra cycling, * air pump, * UV a & b light for the plants, * night light for me to watch them, * aquatic plants (3) - which I have just found to be NON aquatic so I have to replace them. * live plants in the ground *Clay pellets as the bottom substrate for drainage, forest bedding for the main substrate and then moss on top. * 5 Fire-bellied toads

Nice setup! Gotta love those tetra-fauna waterfall filters, I swear I LIVE by that thing in my bullfrog tank. Just gotta change the cartridges weekly. They are MESSY creatures lol.

Looks very well done - I'm sure the FBTs are happy in there. Beautiful

The tank is actually not bad to care for at all. The filters are the most time consuming. I take them out every week and clean them as well as replacing the filter cartridges. It took me a little while to figure how long the waterfall cartridges held up for but so far I have them for about 2-3 weeks without having to replace them.
CoexistExotics - is that too long to keep the cartridges?
