I know that this species gets quite large (~4 inches) and is quite predatory on other amphibians, even it's own species and as such should be kept in a species only tank with like sized tank mates, if any.

That's all that I have, their care and habitat requirements wouldn't be much different than any other tree frog.

I wouldn't recommend mixing this species, and would be careful to keep them with others of a similar size. This voracious predator feeds readily on smaller frogs. Males are typically 90 mm snout to vent, and females 125 mm. They can live for 15 years in captivity.

Ha, Cuban Tree Frogs, the females get HUGE! It is fairly easy to tell the difference between the males and females because of the fact that the females can get larger than 4" and males generally are 2 1/2". If you have only have males you can mix this species with other frogs but if you have a female, she will eat other frogs...as seen in other posts.
