    I want to put the Bonzai tree in with my green tree frogs. The tree is pretty pokey like a pine tree. Will it hurt my frogs? Or will they like the tree?

    If its pokey like a pine tree theres a GOOD chance its an outdoor bonsai. If it is an outdoor and youre keeping it inside its sure to die. Ive found out the hard way about outdoor ones. Most commonly outdoor bonsai are sold to the public without id tags so you dont really know how to care for it. I really wouldnt recommend bonsai for wtf enclosures. Because of how theyre kept (bonsai soil is made up of sand, lava rock and soil- not very rich in nutrients) bonsai need to be fertilized often which is a nono for wtfs.

    Any plant that is going to be put in with wtfs need to be repotted in safe soil with no pearlite and no fertilizer.
