    far from a correction Raya, just more information for everyone like Carlos, i have a heavy background in aquariums, especially planted tanks, and we love those little fishies!!LOL

    the subject of toxicity always comes up in the FBT threads. yet, i know many FBT owners who keep fish with the FBT's. i actually do know a frogger who keeps vietnamese mossies with fish in a wonderful paludarium. although, i must add, said person is a very experienced frogger AND aquarist.

    brett, any light will encourage algae growth, provided there are excess nutrients in the water. a few floating plants should absorb any extra nutrients, preventing algae growth.

    I personally have no experience with mossy frogs...however im well rounded with red eye tree frogs... in my rainchamber/vivarium combo... i have dwarf catfish and plecos.... To my amazment my red eyes WILL and HAVE eaten the dwarf catfish... I think I was the first to report them eating fish... I only found out when i found a fish skeleton in the poop!!! HAHA it was amazing!! I have lost 3 /10 dwarf catfish... in the past 2 months. I am almost positive it is just ONE particular female that eats them because she is ALWAYS down by the water as what i would like to call FISHING! =P Kinda like a cat looking into a pond for fish =P SHe does the same thing.

    If dwarf Corydoras, it's risky, since species in genus have hard spines that could get stuck and damage frogs digestive system .
    Remember to take care of the enclosure and it will take care of your frog !​

    I totally agree with you!!! Don't worry i removed them a few weeks ago. I don't want to waste money on them only to get them eaten...they are not as cheap as crickets/ roaches.
