Is this housing safe for tree frogs

[Herpin Man]

Personally I wouldn't consider it. The frog could transmit pathogens to the axie, especially if it is wild caught. More likely, though, that the axie will chomp down on the frog the first time it so much as dips a toe in the water, killing or injuring it.

Ok. But if I gave it water somewhere the axie can’t get to, and make it so that they couldn’t get into the axies water, would that be safe? And so the constant water evaporating and humidity created by the water isn’t a problem for tree frogs? I’d also add in more places to hid etc

You can't stop a frog from utilizing water they are nosy and curious and no matter how well you could try to rig it the frog will just keep trying until it gets into the water. The salamander will try to eat the frog since it will be bigger but if you get a big frog it would try to eat your salmander and the salamander is poisonous. All amphibians are poisonous but salamanders, newts and pickerel frogs are something that only can be housed alone or by an advanced keeper knowing what species they have all the ins and outs for numerous reasons. It's just best for the species you asked about that they stay with their own species because of numerous reasons. I'm curious as to what type of tree frog you were considering?

Well I have a single female American green tree frog that I need to rehouse and wanted to see if she could be in there safely. I also would love to have some red clown tree frogs, red eye tree frogs, pretty much any kind I can get. But I want to make sure I know how to properly care for then and that they’ll be safe before I get any.

I think those other tree frogs are great but I'll say you need to be very educated on just Red Eye Tree Frogs before you buy them. I never owned one but they aren't an easy species to keep. I think if you would rehouse the green tree frog and even get another like the opposite sex if you can that would help give you some experience with tree frogs and help you get a little more familiar on how to care for tree frogs. Green tree frogs are very fun and can be interesting to keep. A 20 gallon or Exo Terra 18x18x24 would be good for a pair. I am not discouraging you from buying a red eye tree frog I'm just saying even me having years of experience with other tree frogs would need to get more educated on that species specifically. I am not an advanced keeper id realistically say I am with toads but overall I'm a solid intermediate keeper. I think it would take me about 2 years or so of research and on the third year purchase a pair. There is so much to learn when it comes to advanced frogs!

Thanks you! I will do that. And that Vivarium with my axie is 18x18x24. If only I could keep her in there. Do you know of anything I could put in with her (the axie) that stays up in trees or the like?

Also, if I were to do more than just 2 greens should I have a certain number of males to females?
