A little dilemma.

[GarterPython]

Ok so as some of you know I have a something gallon (don't know the exact size but its big. In the tank I have some anoles, long tail grass lizards and might get some tree frogs. Anyway I was wondering if it would be possible to add poison dart frogs. I have heard lots of things about the topic and it is really contreverial but I want to here your opinions. I heard that if you have enough room and only tree lizards that don't try and use the same territory then it should be fine but I just don't know. Here is the picture of the tank. (You can't really see the floor space but there is enough there for a couple of poisons if I can. Never mind will post pic tomorrow because its not working.

I would suggest you get expearience with darts first before trying this out. That way you can meet all they're needs.

[lady_bug87]

I personally wouldn't mix species unless you're reeaaaally sure what you're doing

[GarterPython]

Yea well for the experience with the dart frogs my dad has lots of experience with them so that would be no problem and I get that there is also a huge argument with mixing species at all but the tank has lots of room and so far it has been working perfect. I think I'm actually might stay away with mixing the dart frogs in (it just sucks because I love them so much) but I'd rather not cause problems.

Try sticking with what you have and working with what you got first.

Didn't your anoles kill each other?

No one actually ended up drowning.

Really? Did it get in a fight with the water bowl?

Which was a big pain because all of the foam and stuff we use was glued tigether with the silicone so we had to recut and re cement all of the foam. Anyway this is finally what it can out as. It has been done for about a month I was just always busy to post pictures. It has 3 green anoles (1 died because he got in a fight) , one brown anole and one house gecko. It also has a buch of random coloured guppies and even some babies in there because when we bought the females they were far in to pregnancy already. There is also a patriot crab. I am hoping to get an acolotl in there to or maybe a salamander or two

Save your bullshat kid.

You'd make a horrible cop, Korbin. Watch your language, and remember that kid you're talking to has twice the class you're showing.

[GarterPython]

Oh sorry korbin forgot about that one. I had four in there when I first got it an now I only have two. The second one drowned and I forgot about him. That one did get in a fight and die but it was supposed to be a female and turned out to be male so that's why. You should know me by know that I don't try and lie about this stuff. I just totally forgot about that one. And haha no it didn't get in a fight with the water bowl the bottom half of the tank is water and he fell in and got stuck under neath a little cave thing and couldn't get out. (It will be a little easier to explain when I get the picture up)

[smy_749]

cops come in all shapes and sizes, and attitudes. I agree with people who like them, and with people who hate them, all depends on which one pulls you over. To the OP, you have a paludarium? Im confused if the bottom is water, are the just on branches? or do you have a land portion/back wall ?

[GarterPython]

Yes I do have a paludarium and yes it is a little hard to explain here is a picture finally. Mist is kind of covering it but there is land on oth sides above the water.
