Google is an easy to use search engine, why not do you own research first to impress your parents?

The false goliath frog is the only one that would be difficult to pull up information on. They all get big as adults. I had the Smokies and they were about 8" nose to vent. Bulls get around there, but jump stronger and farther. The C. alleni get around 6-7" on average I believe. You’ll need a very large setup for any of these, a 40 gallon breeder tank in my mind is bare minimum for any of these.

i have a spare 20 gallon 2 spare 60’s and a 80 gallon that i am not using.....i figured these would do just perfectly. i tried google and showed my parents the info, but they weren’t impressed, they wanted information directly from people who know wut there talking about, so i figured i go to u guys since you’ve given so much useful information in the past.

Haha, tough parents. If you can get them go with the false Goliaths. I rarely see them for sale. Chicken frogs are loud but cool. Bulls are common place, cool, but they’re everywhere. I always get something from the other side of the planet. Of course I moved to the other side of the planet 2 years ago, so I guess I should be getting some N. American frogs, ha. Hop on over to www.talkto.thefrog.org. I have no experience with Goliaths, so I can’t give you detailed information.
