    Default Fire Bellied Toads: Fish?

    I was wondering what kind of fish I can put in my fbt terrarium. I know guppies are good fish to have with fbts, but are their any other options. I would like to get fish that are at a good price and look kinda cool. I've also used basic feeder fish like rosy reds, but they die off fast.

    Thanks in advance for any input.

    I have scene neon tetras in fbt setups on youtube and I was wondering of they would make a good fish?

    I haven't had any problems with any fish in my FBT tank. I also have had great success with crabs (fiddler & red thai crabs). Granted those are smaller crabs, I wouldn't recommend big ones. I had one red thai crab that actually would go and hang out with the frogs. He wouldn't interact with them, but they would peacefully co-exist.

    correct me if I am wrong...but wouldn't the poison form the FBT eventually kill the fish/crab? I was looking into doing the exact same thing with mine, but thought it would kill them

    if you have good enough filtration and to consistent water changes you shouldn't have a problem, but without any of those things then yes the poison would kill them.

    I have a 30 gallon tank (filled 2/3rds of the way up) with 2 filters, and usually 2-3 FBT's. The FBT basically live on the islands on top. and the crabs typically live on the bottom, except for when they come up for air. So I mean, it's a big enough tank, that whatever poison the toad's excrete, it's dilluted enough that it doesn't bother the crabs. I've had crabs live for over a year in the tank.
