Oh, it's toxic? i didn't know that. I'm housing them with my white's right now. How toxic are they?

Hi photoninja. Your Red-legged Walking Frog looks gorgeous.

I would advise you to separate them asap, It's never a good idea to mix different frog species at all.

Toxic enough that you want to seperate them immediately. They are also wild caught, so they will need deworming, and so will your White's since you have housed them together.

Thanks. They were kept with white's at the store, so i figured it would be ok to stick them with mine. Now i just have to find another tank and a spot to put it

Grrrr, that's terrible. Another example of a pet shop that has no beep idea.
Someone needs to tell them.

It's not your fault photoninja, you did not know and you had your trust in the pet store like many others will.

Happens all the time Ebony and I am with you, it sickens me too but the almighty dollar is all that matters, the animals are nothing but a vehicle to get at it.

I think i'm going to go say something to them. It's not the employees' fault that they didn't know what kind of frogs they were, but it was definitely the store's.
As for now, i don't have another tank for them....but it seems like they stay pretty far away from each other, so i'm hoping they whites will be ok for now

Well, they use the same water and that is the most likely source for the exchange of toxins. You could house the Kassina in a Rubbermaid box for now.
