    Default Tree Frogs - Salt Pool/Pond/Guppies?

    Hi all,
    I'm new to the forum and am so hoping I get some advice.

    I very successfully raised about 200 tree frogs last year. I let them hop away and live their little lives.

    I've since moved and have a salt water pool. I'm only dealing with 25 tree frog tads now because I want to see how they deal with the pool.
    If they mature into frogs and go hop in the pool and die, I will quit my endeavors.

    If they do make it, I am considering installing a small pond for them.
    I have mosquito treatment for my yard but would also like to include a fish to help with any possible mosquito wigglers.

    Can I have a guppy in a pond with my tree frog tads? They are little bitty guys so I'm concerned.
    My ONLY purpose for the pond is for the tree frogs.

    Thanks, Jill

    Hello and welcome to FF! What do you mean by "salt water pool?" How much salt is there in water? Hope your yard mosquito treatment does not include chemicals.

    You can keep some Guppies, Endlers, etc. for mosquito control if the water is not too salty. Be aware that if frogs have access to pond they will probably eat some of the fish. Good luck !
    Remember to take care of the enclosure and it will take care of your frog !​

    Hi Carlos,
    Thanks for the response.
    The tads are outside and native to the area.
    I have a salt water swimming pool which I don't want them to end up in - pretty sure chance of survival would be very slim.

    Mosquito treatment is pet safe and shouldn't be a problem.

    The pond I'm proposing to put in would be fresh water.

    I'm still nervous about having guppies in with such tiny tads but it may be worth a try.
