:headbang2:I'm stoked. I finally got some plants that are staying alive in my fire bellied toad tank! I've been through multiple plants and would live for a few months and then just die, or be eaten by the crickets, but these ones are doing great! I think I am going to get some more to float in the water, the toads seem to love hanging on to them while they float. The plants make such a lovely difference. What do you guys think? I know the tank needs a background, it will be coming very soon.

Looks good! (except for the little plastic palm :) )
Hemi, Creeping Charlie, Lucky Bamboo? You could add Arrowhead & Mondo Grass as they're "not quite" aquatic.

looks great. I'd like to see a full frontal shot... your frog doesn't jump out?
I've had GREAT luck with lemon bacopa... it spreads all over any land it can, and droops into the water, sending out bunches of roots that are really nice. it also flowers pretty regularly. doesn't do so well completely underwater.
also, hydrocotyle. can't go wrong with some floaters.
