Hey just before you read the rest of this all I'm saying is that my green tree frogs survived and thrived with two oriental fire-bellied frogs.
Okay even though they are not in the same terrarium for three years my two green tree frogs (Jumbo and Tricky) lived in a terrarium with my two fire-bellied frogs, and they THRIVED. The male would call each night, and all the frogs in the enclosure got the same water from a large water bowl, and each ate five dusted crickets. Now my question is could the greens have built up an immunity the same way that the green anoles in Florida evolved to be more arboreal than the brown anoles that took over? I mean where I caught them there were three large ponds and plenty of spiders and roaches.(BTW never if you want to vacation in Florida never stay at Legacy Dunes, the place I described) A kid could have released his pet fire-bellies and they thrived in that area. Over time the native frogs that lived near that hotel motel over time and breeding developed an immunity to fire-belly toxin. Sorry for the rant, but with all the invasives in Florida it could be possible. I mean the only bad thing that happened when they were together, when my dad and I cleaned the tank, we didn't close the top, and Kermit the fire-belly who thought he was a tree frog, climbed up and crawled underneath the guest bed and proceeded to desiccate. So I'm going to end the rant here, and you can try to be nice about the theory and just so you know they are not in the same tank anymore they are in a nice, tall Exo-Terra with two gray tree frogs so just tell me about it in the replies:frog:
