haha so i got the mushrooms in the tank! hopefully they start to pop up in a month or so! im excited.

That being said. Sometimes you must sacrifice beauty for safety when it comes to their homes.

I completely disagree. There is absolutely NO good reason to not put your animal's safety first and foremost when it comes to husbandry. At the end of the day, these animals depend on us to give them everything they need, and to say that its OK to sacrifice safety for aesthetics, in my opinion, says a lot about your integrity as a keeper. Not cool at all.

David you're reading my post backwards it says that you have to sacrifice beauty for safety. It says it plain and clear. Nowhere did I say anything about putting the animals safety asside. Think before you post comments if you are not understanding what is being said. Ask first. You're misunderstanding completely. Meaning safety first and formost. Beauty is set asside.

Fungus and frogs don't mix. They are highly suscetable to fungal infections. Bad idea.

Safe as in not poisonous is different than not able to grow on the frogs skin. Spores from the mushrooms may irritate and start to grow on the frog. I don't think its a good idea.

[Savannah]

mmmmm........lol

Bioluminescent Glow in the Dark Mushroom Habitat Kit
thats were i found them..actually got them on ebay but there the same. i'll post the name of the mushroom later. but the info page that came with says in bold "this is not poisonous..but nor are they edible." imma do more reasearch on this mushroom tho...but we wouldn't have got them if we thought it would harm them...i'll look into it further.

[Savannah]

So the kind of spores are Panellus Stipticus.

damn, had a lil argument on here while i was gone lol. gna try n get more pics soon... ill keep yall posted

No argument just a discussion. I've always been told and have read that any mushroom that is inedible is poisonous. Hopefully this kind is not harmful to amphibians. I just do not trust any fungi being in my frogs home. Amphibians get fungal infections very easily due to their skin being moist all the time. They are highly suscetable to it. It would be cool though. Glowing mushrooms. They would attract the insects you feed your frog which in turn your frog may deside to venture over to the mushrooms and well it is very possible that accidental ingestion could occur because of this. I'm just not sure.

[Savannah]

lol nope not arguing. just stating what i've found...plus i wouldn't argue with someone who knows more about amphibians than i do...lol so far i haven't seen or read anything bout negative affects of this mushroom and frogs..but i'll keep looking some more...nobody seems to have tried either..so ...lol bleh..:/
dave - See what u miss when u disappear. lol

[Spedly4life]
