My search turned up nothing... so i dare ask a repetitive question. right now i have a red-eye tree frog, whites tree frog, golds tree frog, cobalt dart frog, and a firebelly toad in the same 20gal tall tank. i know its much to small for all of them so i picked up a 60 gallon wide aquarium for them and am in the process of "Amphibian-izeing" it.

i plan on making it a true amphibian setup with water and land areas and a filter enduced waterfall.

my question is, is it a bad idea to have all these guys mixed? they are all roughly the same size (young) and when i feed them i seperate them. i take the toad, whites, and golds tree frogs and feed them in a seperate tank because they are a little larger and take bigger crickets. i plan on raising my own crickets as well.

which herps shouldnt i mix? i was thinking of introducing salamanders and newts into the tank as well.

also i have a friend who wants to give me his adult whites tree frog because he believes i will give him a better life. is it wise to keep him in a seperate tank until they are all the same size?
