some people say no, some say yes. i say yes. if the tank is big enough and set up with both species in mind it should be okay. even then (from what i have heard even though i havent had problems EVER) you may be running a risk.

It CAN harm them but it depends on the size of tank, i always say no beucase some one may just skim though a post see whjat there looking for, that being you CAN houes FBT’and newts together go and put 2FBT’s in with a FBN in a little 10 gal and then end up with a dead herp at the end of the week, but its up to the owner really if they feel they have a big enough tank and can filter out all the toxins then they can try and house them together.!

sometimes it works. sometimes it doesnt. some people dont set up the tank right for everyone. others put 2 together that are way too different in size. those are the ones where it doesnt work out. not all amphibians are toxic. not all are constantly releasing it, they hold it in and excrete it onto their skin when threatened by a predator. if you do some good reasearch and figure out what 2 or 3 species you want to do and how to set up their enclosure to meet all their needs and help them not be piled up on eachother, you will greatly increase your chances of success.
