I have an empty 10 gallon tank that is divided in half with one half being water 6 inches deep and the other side being 6 inches of dirt. There are various live plants and a fake log on the dirt portion. I am looking for a herp that would live comfortablly in this tank. I can add a filter if necessary. Must not be a picky eater or require a large amount of attention. Previous tennets were wood frogs, grey tree frogs, green tree frogs, american toads, mink frogs, and green frogs. Looking for something different.

I would think that the only thing that would not ever need a biger tank is a fire belly nute or a paddle nute. Fire belly nutes only get 2 inches big they like to have water and land or rock. Paddle nutes get about 4inches long. These are cool little black lizards. They will enteract with you. They like to watch you. they don't like to be handled much though. When I am interacting with mine I always am remined of that cute gicko on t.v.
A frog is something that can live in a little tank also. I have a fire belly nute and a fire belly toad in the same tank. It's a ten gallon. I've had them for three years now. They are called fire belly because there stomachs are orange spotted and they are said to be posinious if they are raised in the wild. They are not posinious if they are raised from a pet store.

A 10 gallon tank will house LIZARDS: Leopard geckos, African fat tailed geckos, panther geckos, crested geckos, golden geckos, flying geckos, day geckos, green anoles, crested anoles, Pygmy chameleons,fire skinks schneiders skinks, or any small species of agama. FROGS: Pac man frogs, Budgetts frogs, African clawed frogs, tomato frogs, red eyed tree frogs, whites tree frogs, Amazon milk frogs, barking tree frogs, grey tree frogs, green tree frogs, dart frogs and mantellas. TOADS: Bumble bee toads, fire belly toads, marine toads, Surinam toads. SNAKES: garter snakes, sand boas, rosy boas, children's python, western hog nose, eastern hog nose, and a couple other types of small snake like rough green snakes. TURTLES: you could keep a small water turtle, box turtle or tortoise in a tank that size for a year or two until they reach about three inches in length, even though it is not recommended I have raised turtles and tortoises for years and it seems to work quite well.

A small garter snake would be ok-even a corn snake is going to outgrow that. Maybe a newt or a salamander.

Your best bet is going to be sticking with frogs. Anyother rept./amphib. is going to need more space than that. You can try some anoles, but that's about it.
