ok heres the thing.. my fiance went yesterday and bought a new firebelly (Sunshyne). When he got it home we put it in with the other firebelly (sip) anyways sip has been in the tank for almost 2 years without another frog and now he is trying to eat the other frog i mean he tries to eat her one leg at a time. I'm just wondering if he may be territorial or if he is scared or what. anyways i would really like if u would give me any ideas of what to do.... we have a divider in the tank to keep then apart but he still finds a way over it.... so im begging for ideas or advice
the worried one.

Just try and give it some time. Every time I get a new firebelly my other firebellies will pick on it for the first couple days. But, if it lasts for more then three days you might want to reconsider the toads's living arrangements. Most pet stores will give you like a two week guaruntee or something in case you can't keep the pet. Do you know if you got a guaruntee? If so you might want to think about taking it back. However, firebellies are supposed to be very social. But that is all the advice I've got. I hope everything works out.

Thanks FBT520 for ur advice we have them in the same cage now but have a screen inbetween them and in the day when we are home we let them in the same area but when we are gone to work or just out for a while we leave them apart. But like is said thanks for the advice once again

No problem. I'm glad that everything worked out.
