Big eyed help

[bruce m]

I have a big eyed tree frog and it ate my gtf that was a little smaller and it just tried to eat a frog bigger than it, are they aggresive?? and ive been feeding it and i watched it eat 5 crickets earlier, do i need to feed it more? thanks

what other frogs are with it? what size of tank? how many frogs?

3 gtf's, the big eyed, a grey tree frog, and a chubby frog that burrows in the EE, the pet store told me i could keep them together, and i couldnt find any info online, none of them are adults

in a 37 gallon

it could be aggression due to close quarters with other frogs, that is very possible, and just like people, some frogs are more aggressive than others, i know most people in the frog community dont agree with keeping different species together, and I wouldn't recommend it to someone knew, but you are deff going to want to separate him/her from the other or else he/she will most likely just eat another one

Pet stores don't really give good advice. You shouldn't actually mix species, as the frogs will stress each other out, eat each other, or slowly poison one another. It's a bad idea in general.

unless you do your research and really know what your doing

Some pet stores will say anything to make a sale, and that one definitely steered you in the wrong direction. You have species from 3 continents of varying sizes, temperaments, and environmental needs, that is a recipe for disaster as you have seen. On the bright side you get to have fun setting up some new tanks to get them all split up.
