    Actually vice-versa typically, both the Leopard frogs and Fire-bellied toads are large enough to eat the newts, and Leopard frogs are large enough at adult size to take a Fire-bellied toad as well. The newts would surely take a frog down with it due to its extreme toxins it has in its skin. The newt will also need large amounts of cool water, (55-68 Fahrenheit) whearas the frogs will need more land and warmer temperatures. (70-80 Fahrenheit) All in all, that type of tank is probably one of the worst mixed species tanks that anyone's done. Here's a few more articles to/for the original poster: http://www.caudata.org/cc/articles/M...isasters.shtml http://www.frogforum.net/content.php...-and-relatives http://www.caudata.org/cc/species/Cy...ientalis.shtml


    EDIT: Oops, didn't realize how old that this was, sorry!
