Reptile & Amphibian Forums

I know ive read many post on people trying to house stuff together. Most of the time i think its a bad idea.
I was thinking oof maybe putting 2 red eye tree frogs in my crested enclosure just to have a little something more to see in there at night. They dont do a whole lot of moving and stuff and meet the same reqiurments. If you havent seen my enclosure you can see it if you go into my photos.
i probably wont do this. but i want to know what you think.
also i was at a distributor's place i wont say who. and i noticed in thier crested display they have a rather large wazy monkey tree frog. i like these frogs but i just think thats a bad idea because it could potentially harm or eat the cresteds and crush layed eggs that go unseen.
it is nice to see diff things co-existing, but i dont want the "eye candy" to lead to stress or my cresteds not breeding which is my ultimate goal.
so what do you think?
thanks dave

Even if it does seem fine, how can you tell? Id say if it puts either species under stress/harm/etc , even the tiniest bit, don't do it. If they are extremely stressed, they will lose tails, not eat etc. But because there is not way of telling if and reptile is a little stressed out, i wouldn't do it.

I'll never forget the time I went to the pet store and saw the enclosure with a large tree frog of some type (don't remember if it was White's or Waxy Monkey). Someone had put some young Chinese Water Dragons in the same enclosure. I did a double take when I saw one of the frogs with the hind legs and tail of a water dragon sticking out of its mouth.
I wouldn't risk my rhacs that way.
