I don't keep frogs, but I do have a couple of Firebellied Newts.- cynops orientalis. I don't think the newts would eat the frogs unless they were tiny, BUT frogs are usually responsible for injuries, etc. to newts. If not convinced, follow this linkwww.caudata.org for some horror stories.

The original hyperlink I inserted brought up an error page, so I will explain how to find the article manually:
