If I get him Oriental friends do you think they will get along, or should I not risk mixing species, even if they're only different FBT species, not entirely different frogs? I'm not positive, but from what I understand, they're basically the same species and can be housed together perfectly fine.


Also, does anyone have any sexing tips for European (or others?) for a definitive way to tell when it's not breeding season? Really the only definitive way of sexing is during breeding season. Males will bark but don't always bark. I've got a male that I've only ever heard bark twice in the 2 or 3 months I've had him. Some people say that you can tell by the webbing on their feet. The female will have less webbing making her toes look longer and females are generally bigger and fatter but neither of those are a guarantee.

And one more thing: What's the best substrate? What's good to use to make sure he can't accidentally eat it with food?

That one I don't know. I have my entire tank covered in water with ornamental things that come out of the water for them to use as land pieces.
