10 gallon vertical display

[9darlingcalvi]

I am looking for stocking options of a 10 gallon very tank, I have looked at day gecko species. Other than that I have no idea what to put in the tank, maybe a frog species? If a frog specie it can’t be a poison dart frog, I’m in the planning stage so I’m looking for options and how to setup the tank

If it's a vertical tank, an arboreal species like a crested or gargoyle gecko would work in that size. One only, however, don't house two together.

I was looking at clown tree frogs, wild those work?

I don't know much about frogs. The 10 gallon is too small, in my opinion, for a crested gecko and could possibly be OK for a gargoyle. I was interested at some point in starry night reed frogs. You could get more info about them from Josh's frogs. The other thing to look at is micro geckos. I have some from genus Sphaerodactylus. Some of the info on them says they are terrestrial, but they can stick on the side of the enclosure and seem to enjoy being higher in the cage. You could also consider mourning geckos which are parthenogenetic.

I was also thinking reed frogs at some point also, I wouldn’t know what to do with all the extra baby mourning geckos though and micro geckos seem to advanced for a semi noob like me

Check out the care sheets on Josh's Frogs - Largest online herps feeders and reptile supplies store - those can help you decide whether a certain species of frog would work in that size tank.

Aliza is right, that size tank is too small for an adult crestie (my original post was not considering an adult). A garg (if you like the mid-size geckos) like things a little more cozy, or there are a few frog species that wouldn't mind a tank that size. Josh's Frogs is a really good site for info on those.
