To everyone who has debated wether keeping FBNS and FBTS together, i would like to share my little story with you. I had my FBN and FBT together for a while. I was sure that keeping them together would be fine. Then one day while feeding them, the toad attacked the poor newt and took off a toe or two. It was then i decided to seperate them. Only good things have come from this. My newt seems much more active and less stressed. He eats more and appears more healthy overall. Same with the toad, who never spent time in the water... now he does! Keeping these species together only causes stress to both creatures. Thanks so everyone in this forum who convinced me to seperate them, it was a good choice.
