Hi, you can find lists of tropical marine flora available to be imported to NZ. You can use animals from local rockpools but most won't survive long in constant temperatures over 20 degrees centigrade and also have the potential to carry parasites.

As Caryl said and britlenose will usually only eat fish that have already died.

What area are you in?

The green water is algae
Green pond water is caused by tiny floating algae, which grow explosively. Additional effects are low CH value, high pH value and stagnation in growth of oxygen producing plants. Green pond water frequently occurs in newly built ponds containing water rich in food.

Hi Vicki good to see you are still doing the animal thing lol
to answer your questions
What kind of frogs would do best in the Far North of nz? Our house can get very warm in summer.
Both green and golden bell, and southern bell will handle the far north caresheet here https://aquariumworld.nz/databases/22-Tropical FWFishallowedinNZdatabase/1850-Green-and-Golden-Bell-Frog
What kind of water to land ratio is ideal for them, and what kind of filters are recommended?
A small bowl will suffice so land as general environment has good humidity, about 30% water if spawning
Also how many frogs are best to keep? Are they social or is 1 happier?
They get on okay if similar sizes but big frog is always capable of eating little frog
A small filter just to keep some movement in the water works well

Welome aboard

Can you stick your location on there please?

Yes without, have edited it thanks

What you are proposing will definitely work, they are the best escape artists and finding their way into filters off limit areas etc.
Having access to 3D printer will help with tight fits on structure and support ledges on the walls to avoid collapses.
Can probably get away without heating and minnows make good tank mates
Search in the reptile/amphibian forum for some previous builds

Yes social media is for instant gratification, every man and his dogs opinion and a few good answers lost in a parade of misinformation lol
We still have a lot of traffic on the site but not a lot of interaction sadly

Welcome back

These are for sale but I did this mainly to see if it would comply with Facebooks "no live animal sales" rule
They allow links to an outside link and the FNZAS is a legal entity

That hasn't been my experience with them, they eat fish that have died usually
And only attempt to catch fish when not fed enough
