Help me decide on a habitat/pets

[Zelg]

Ok, so I'm a little bored tonight but lately I've been kicking around the idea of a living terrerium with a few different animals and some live plants. I really have no idea what I'm doing so take it easy and I'm not rushing out to get anything just yet, it'll be a little while before I go ahead with this.

I feel like I would like to do a 55 gal. setup but am very open to other ideas. I've thought about just doing an aquarium (fresh or salt, doesnt make a difference though it looks like a saltwater setup requires a good bit of knowledge before hand so maybe salt isnt a good idea to start with).

I also like the idea of having a section of water for fish and or turtles and using the land for frogs or other amphibians. I've read that turtles can be problematic with frogs but not sure how much of a problem.

The other idea i've thought about is just doing a tall dart frog setup.


So I guess I'm just wondering if any of you have mutiple setups that fall into these categories and what you may find the easiest or maybe what you thought might be easy but turned out to be difficult and maybe even more high maintenance than you planned.

Again, just kicking around ideas so I'm interested in opinions, suggestions, cautionary tales lol. thanks.
