I've been finding conflicting info as to whether or not frogs, toads, slamanders & newts can live together. What are your opinions ? Could you please give some reasons with it . If you think they can could you please specify which types.
Thanks for helping out.

I had my newts and treefrogs living together for a long time. Still would if I hadn't of sold them. With the newts make sure they are the same size. Also make sure the frogs are about the same size too.
Please do not mix species. Its not a good idea. Sure they are all one family and all, but conflicts will occur. Mixing a firebelly toad with a treefrog will reult in the the tree frogs death because of the toxins. Fighting for food will occur which may resultt in death. Whether a species is diurnal or nocturnal does not justify mixing, it just worsens the problem. Some species harbour bacteria that may kill another species. Look at it this way, would you like to be put into a room with a serial killer... we are the same family aren't we...
Just my 50 cent :)
