Well Im catching the bug now, and Im bored with my 1 WTF, and so now Im in the process of making another upright viv, and Im looking around at what I can get next. Has anyone ever had Hyla marmorata's? Is the care pretty much like any other TF? Any experience or thoughts are welcome! How are they for pets!?!
I have never kept them, but I do have the closely related Dendropsophus leucophyllatus. The care is very similar to the Red-Eyed Leaf Frog.
I just saw some "bird poop frogs" at my local petstore for the first time. They are pretty wild looking. Sorry I don't have any care advice to offer, but I want to hear all about it if you get some.
I have 4 bird poop frogs and they are great,def the most entertaining of all the frogs ive had,they have such unique personalitys,they like higher humidity 50-80% temp from 75-80,i have mine in a 36gallon bowfront tank,paludarium set up(water bottom) with brazilian swords,driftwood,mushroom ledges,rain chamber etc....im adding 2 more bird poops and 4 clowns to my tank in the next month,there awesome frogs,i can give u my breeders phone number he breeds them
I had never heard of these frogs and well was quite surprise by their name. I just looked them up and now I understand. Lol
I wouldn't mix clowns and bird-poop frogs in the same tank.
the breeder i go through breeds clowns and h.marmoratas and he said its perfectly safe to put them in the same tank since they r from the same area and require the same temps n humidity and are the same size.....hes had his tank setup w 4 clowns n 4 marmoratas and theyve been ok for over 2 years.......
My concern is with cross contamination. I would be worried that they would be poisoning each other.
Do clowns produce any type of natural toxin? i see you have clowns for your icon so you probably know quite a bit,i researched h.marmoratas for about 5 months before i got mine(best type set up,breeding,proper humidity,eating,tank size,temps/conditions for breeding etc etc.) I love my marms id hate anything to die esp since 5 clowns is about $115bux id hate to waste money too
Clowns due produce some toxicity, as to how toxic it is, I just don't know. It wouldn't surprise me if marmorata did too.
