Day 7

This is our half tank. This spring we raised tadpoles and our 7yo wanted to keep a couple of the frogs. Most frogs are at least partly terrestrial, so we made this 1/2 tank from an old aquarium we had. My hubby used aquarium glue, a piece of Lexan and a piece of rubber tubing slit in half. We were so happy with how it came out. We filled half the tank with sand, dirt, moss and rocks and the other side with gravel and water.

We have two frogs (you can see the largest one just to the right of the center piece), an Eastern Spotted Newt and several minnows from the river. It is so enjoyable to have these creatures share our home.
