Recommended Enclosure Size: For a pair of adult tomato frogs, a 20 gallon long or an 18x18x12 front opening enclosure is sufficient.
Size: Adult female tomato frogs can reach almost 4" in length; males are capped out at about 2.5." Young tomato frogs will be about 3/4" at the time of sale at Josh's Frogs.
Age: Tomato Frogs can live up to 10 years in captivity but may live longer with ideal care. At the time of sale, you can expect tomato frogs to be at least 2 months out of the water.
Color/Pattern: Adult Tomato Frogs are much prettier than their offspring, who are usually a light brown color separated from the white underbelly by a darker brown band starting at the eye. As they age the coloration turns into an orange or red - depending on sex - with the band and underbelly staying the same. Most individuals will also have a rhomboid marking on their backs.
Social Behavior: As long as enough space is provided, more than 2 frogs can be kept in the same enclosure. Males should not become aggressive unless breeding conditions are met.
