Well I recently set up a habitat for a small frog possibly a Baja California Tree frog or a Pacific Tree frog(will post a picture because frogs are hard to identify) and was wondering if a green frog would be compatible for my current frog.

I hate being the bearer or bad news, but pretty much no forum on the internet will recommend the containment of different species in the same enclosure due to the differences in toxins each frog produces. These toxins are cross contaminated through absorption when they use the water source provided, travel, sleep, and sit on what is left behind of trace left by the other frog throughout the enclosure. Thus, slowly poisoning your frogs over a long period of time.
Although frogs can be the same area, the amount of trace they receive in the wild is very minimal compared to what they would be subject to in confinement.
Thats too bad, i guess ill be going frog hunting soon.
Always best to house them according to species. Look on the bright side, more tanks, more fun :-)
Yea I had no idea that they would poison each other thanks again for the info.
