Pacman and a Toad?

[Poly]

Thanks.

Really, horned frogs need to be kept in separate cages (from other horned frogs or any other amphibian species) except for breeding purposes. There are no good cagemates for these frogs. If you like communities, toads (generally just of the same species) seem to do just fine in groups. Mine seem to actually like each other (or at least they like using each other as perches, hides, etc).

I would definitely say go with multiple toads in one tank too (if it is big enough) if you want more than one in a tank. I have the 4 of mine in the tank and they seem to get along just fine, they will even eat crickets off each others' backs!

Interesting tidbit: a group of toads is called a knot, and a group of frogs is called an army.

Okay, that clears that up... on the same note, how about toads of different species, such as my american toad with a firebelly toad? Could I keep them in the same tank?

Thanks

I would guess that your firebelly would end up being a possible lunch date.

You have to realize that you can't keep different species together in the same tank. I mentioned the toxins they secrete before. You don't know how they are going to react to each others poison and it can seriouly cause a bad situation not to mention death. The toad will eat the firebelly more than likely.
