Default A 15 gal paludarium?

Hey all,

Just had a look at this page : Chuck's Aquarium Page

and i'm thinking about setting one of these up in a 24"x12"x12" tank that I have lying aroung. Thinking about housing a couple of fire bellied toads and in the aquatic area, a betta (that i currently have housed in a planted nano) and some white cloud mountain minnow.

It seems like a quite easy project and would be fun and love the looks of fire bellied toads .

Would like to know some of your suggestions guys and advice like where the heck can I buy a polystyrene sheet from for cheap?.

Thanks mattb22

i wouldnt put fish with firebellies because of their acidity. one or the other..
it is debated whether or not tree frogs are suited, but people say they may drown....this is art_geckos area.
i did a 4x2x2 paludarium (4ft tall) with archers. that was odd. i didnt really have any decent land roamers, as i was unsure how the saltinity in the air would effect them, but you may want to consider a pixie frog, they're neat, and will dive into water after prey, really cool.
Bettas are a good idea for smaller, pool type paludarium, but beware of the heat you are going to provide for the land dwellers..
