If you were to mix these species you would have to flush eggs everytime you found them. Even then they might hide eggs from you and you would find a hybrid froglet in your tank. You are then left with the lovely task of killing it =/. You aboslutley can not let any offspring from that tank enter the hobby. Even if it doesnt look like a hybrid it most likely still is. Hybrids are detremental to the hobby because we all try to keep the frogs as close to nature as possible. THe diffrent morphs are all seperated from each other in nature and thats how we try to keep it in captivity. Whether or not its legally documented that they are endagered animals darts are definitley endagered. At the current rate of deforestation there may be no more wild darts in the next 100 years. It would be a shame if in the future all the wild darts were gone and darts in the hobby were contaminated with hyrbid blood. There is alot of intrinsic value of the natural occuring morphs. So what an alternative could be setting up four 10 gallon tanks with diffrent morphs or diffrent frogs. That would be pretty cool,you could line them up side by side if you wanted also.
