SamH Posted July 5, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 5, 2009 HTH sam What does that mean?? I was planning on making a Paludarium and I wanted something small for the land part. How big do Golden Bell frogs grow? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alanmin4304 Posted July 5, 2009 Report Share Posted July 5, 2009 The three varieties of Australian frogs introduced to NZ and since established are Litoria--tree frogs. The whistlers prefer it cold and I think are all over NZ as are the southern bells. The green and golds, of which there is an albino variety around, only live in the northern half of the North Island and need it a bit warmer. My frogs (green and golds) only eat live food and only on the land. They are pretty good at eating each other though and have massive mouths and will eat any living thing that will fit in it.

SamH Posted July 5, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 5, 2009 They are pretty good at eating each other though and have massive mouths and will eat any living thing that will fit in it. So not so good to keep with fish? What creatures can be kept in a paludarium? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alanmin4304 Posted July 5, 2009 Report Share Posted July 5, 2009 I don't think they are enclined to feed in the water so may be OK from that point of view but I think the conditions for fish and frogs are different enough for them to be better off seperated.

Ysolla Posted July 12, 2009 Report Share Posted July 12, 2009 The reason African Frogs can't be in private hands is because of Chytrid fungus. If that gets into our waterways (any more than it already is) and we can kiss our amphibian population goodbye Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
