My Giant Bullfrog Needed a New Home – Samson's Story



It’s so crazy to me that I’ve already had Samson for almost six years! Time really does fly. I love this frog, but recently there was an issue with his paludarium. At some point during the move the seal on his tank broke and it began leaking. I never determined precisely what happened, but I had no choice other than to completely redo his setup. As I explain in the video, I would’ve had to fix it at some point anyway. I just had to do it much sooner than anticipated.

Anyway, over the years I’ve had a lot of time to observe Samson and determine precisely what he wants from a home. I thought it would be cool to go through his entire journey thus far to give better context to all of that. This is how I built his new home and his journey thus far. Enjoy!

  1. I felt that it was about time to showcase the man once again! I love this frog, I can't believe how long I've had him already, and I'm so excited to finally get him back into a proper setup. He seems to enjoy it a lot so far. Let me know what you think! Enjoy and have a great weekend SerpaSquad!

  2. I appreciate that your designs focus on what the animal will like, more than some human aesthetic. Of course they end up looking beautiful, but it's more about making the animal feel at home.

  3. I'm used to the frogs that live in my pond, the biggest one we've ever had was about the size of baby Samson! Didn't know there were frogs that got big enough to be able to eat mice

  5. A bullfrog with this name deserves only the best of the best. Even the age you have reached leaves you speechless. I wish this boy continued good health and hope that he stays with you and us 😉 for a very long time.

  6. I love these videos ❤ I’m going back and forth on whether or not to get a bullfrog… besides this obviously being a long commitment I honestly have to ask you or anyone in the comments: is that really enough space? Wouldn’t an animal utilize much more space to roam around out in nature ? Also dumb question – are they fit for companionship ?

  7. @serpaDesign. About to get a Pixie this week. New to this stuff. I still have plenty of time to setup his adult setup while he is a baby, but I'm trying to collect info and learn about how to set up a good tank for him. Could your explain the filter/powerhead system to me? Does the powerhead just move the water, separately from the filter(not connected to it)?
