Question
I have 2 Fire Belly toads and 3 leopard geckos, all of whom are housed separately- my question is whether they can be housed together in a 30 G tan or not. thanks!

Answer
Dear Tish,
thank you for your question.
It's a very bad idea to co-house those species. They have totally different needs in temperature and humidity and it's impossible to accomodate both even in a tank much bigger than a 30g. They may also prey on each other and since the toads are quite toxic, that would probably end deadly fcor the geckos.
I hope I was of some help to you
Jennifer
