inter species housing?

[burtandurny101]

Can i keep a Marble Gecko and a Crested gecko in the same tank, granted there is enough space.
Possibly a Tokay?

Tokay outgrows even a large crested gecko; far more aggressive and likely will consumer a crested gecko.

Marble gecko likes it a bit warmer than cresteds do; also similar concern for interspecific aggression.

I don't know anything about a marble gecko but tokays and crested cant go together.
People often frown upon mixing species mainly because it is not done properly.
I have seen tokays and white line geckos together (skunk geckos) they have the same care and do fine together. I have also seen tokays and poison dart frogs together. I will check out those mrble geckos tho

Housing more then one species together is not reccomended. It has been done but you really need to know what your doing and even then still risky. They will do better on there own.

There's not much left to say. It's just safer for the animals to not mix species.

tokays with poison dart frogs sounds incredibly stupid to me. what happens when the tokay eats the poison dart frog?

 

[shanerules]

any reptile gets stressed when seeing a different reptile. especially cresties. I would highly NOT reccomend it

 

[ariana]

i would never house mixed species together..
like its been said above, its dangerous.
id rather not take the risk personally

 

[mainelygeckos]

Ya sounds like it's not worth the risk in any case. Better safe then sorry in the end

well if your tokay etas the frog i guess he just had a meal because they lose their poison in captivity because if their diet.

nooooooo, there on opposite sides of the arboreal gecko spectrum, cresteds are placid rather slow and usually non aggresive, tokays and marbles are large mean and fast, it would stress out the crested and could even result in it getting injured
