90 gal question

[bshmerlie]

Even though these frogs come from the same country they still would never meet in their natural habitat. The tree frogs are high up in the trees with a lot of ventilation and humidity between 50-70%. The dart frogs are on the ground in the puddles and leaf litter and their humidity is around 90-100%. I don't think it would be possible to have a screen top on your tank for the tree frogs and then only 24 inches away have it be 100% humidity for the darts. Maybe if the tank was turned vertically where you had a fan system at the top where the tree frogs will sleep and then had a humidifier pumping in at the bottom to raise the humidity for terrestrial darts. Crickets would have to be confined to a cricket bowl or they will harass the darts while they sleep. You would have to have a removable bowl for the Red Eyes water dish and remove it before the darts wake up in the morning. Then wipe up any tree frog poo you see before the darts walk through it. Do the same with any dart frog poo before the tree frogs wake up. Although they are still poisoning each other but you could make it a slower death with diligent husbandry.

Fair enough.. Thank you for your answer.. That makes perfect sense... Let me ask this... Is there any other species of land dwelling frog or toad that would work well in an enclosure with Red Eyes ? OR, is there any other tree frog that would work well with darts ?

Thanks so much,

I see a 90 gallon tank and think "Oh my god, my bullfrogs would love this!"

I dont understand the obsession with dark frogs and s. american treefrogs.

Glass Frogs might work though
