I would not reccomend it,I had considered keeping some green tree frogs with my whites as I had seen threads where it was said you could keep them together I think this was by people who had just "heard" this not done it as after doing a lot of research I decided it was not a good idea,I love my whites to much to put them at risk.

there are a few people on here who have kept white lipped tree frogs with whites. but you'll have to ask around to find out who they are. there is always a risk when mixing. its all explained here Amphibiancare.com >> Mixing and Keeping Different Species of Reptiles and Amphibians Together

well i think the websites are harsh because well how can i put this carefully there are some real dumb ignorant morons out there with less sense than a carrot. and it better to say no than say well under the right conditions and with the right species and knowledge and care it can work because the people of the afore mentioned disposition will take it as u can mix whateva u want.

but it can work with the right care and if u think your up to it.

I wouldnt bother if I were you. I wanted to do the same and put some US Greens with my whites to add a splash of colour but I know the whites will eventually get big enought o eat the US greens so I didnt bother.

You could possibly get a newt or something I reckon as long as the frogs are well fed e.t.c they might be ok.

But its probably not worth the risk.
