We arn't in any hurry but once we have our zoomed enclosures built and full of awesome moss and stuff we have found a place to get froggies. This place has wholesale prices but they want a minimum of $200 Home - Swanees Exotics, Reptiles and Amphibians Wholesale pet store supply (http://www.swaneesexotics.com/)

So we are thinking like 10 bumble bee toads some whites tree frogs and some fire bellied toads if they have them. I really do miss fire bellied toads :D I am still waiting to hear if they are captive bred or not.

I'm not sure but I think you may not want to house all those guys together. White's get pretty big and will soon be big enough to munch down your little bumble bee's for sure. Knowing the firebellies they'd probably even give it a try!

Poison arrow frogs look amazing, and if they are cbb they have no poison. (Easy to keep too)

OH my gosh! You should do it!!! That would be incredible!
I've grown quite fond of Kiwi (RETF) and can't wait until I can have a wall sized enclosure with tons of little froggies :P

Ah! Once again a miscue on my part. I just saw that you put enclosureS, not enclosure! Sorry about that. Obviously you know better than to house them together.

White's are really awesome frogs, and Firebellies are so much fun. I've never kept Bumble bees before but they are pretty little guys. What size Zoomeds are you getting?

I love setting up those kind of ecosystem enclosures. The nice thing with frogs is that they don't destroy the tank like snakes and lizards do, do you can grow these amazing vivariums. What type of mosses/plants are you using?

I wounder what a house full of frogs would sound like on a cool rainy night?

I say if you are truly committed to taking care of that many frogs go for it. I would be tempted also but I think that I would see if one of my friends would be willing to buy some as well. This would be a great way to get what you want as well as not get in over your head.
