Mixing Frogs and Salamanders

[John]

I know of no one who has been successful in keeping arboreal salamanders as pets. They invariably die quickly in captivity after being in the pet trade. Even if you could manage to keep one/some alive, I would not mix them with anything else.

I was volunteering at a pet store yesterday...when it came time to clean out the fire belly toad and fire belly salamander tank I found them all dead. I used that opportunity to explain to the owner about NOT mixing species. Unfortunately I had a bunch of dead animals to back me up.

Oh, Julia, that is so sad.
