    Default Glow in the dark mushrooms ok for frogs?

    I was at a reptile show the other week and one of the vendors was selling glow in the dark mushroom growing kits...they told me they were safe for all reptiles and people, but he didn't know about frogs.

    I was wondering if anyone has used them or if they know if they are ok for frogs tanks?

    Thanks Thad

    Usually when saying reptile, that includes frogs. This does not apply to all cases, but to me, I would say it's worth a shot!

    Yeah I was wondering about them wanted to add them to my clown frog tank but I've read that mushrooms are hard to keep alive in a tank. Everything I've read says mushroom caps only last a few hours before the wither and die.

    I found links on how to make clay mushrooms that can be painted with non-toxic glow in the dark paint..

    Yes, with most frogs you can plant the glowing mushroom kits. Be forewarned that they will not survive with frogs that will trample them.

    I would also not use with frogs that may be to aggressive an eater like a Whites Tree Frog, whom seems to miss to many times when diving for crickets and inhales whats ever in the way.

    Was going to put them with clowns but I found a tutorial on another site that showed how to make them using clay. Think I might go that route since then they will last a long time

    Would you mind posting the link to the site that shows how to make them out of clay?
