Eastern Water Skink

[HerpNthusiast]

Hi I will be hopefully getting some Striped Marsh & Brown Tree Frogs in some time and I heard somewhere they can live with Frogs is this true and do they require just UV as they live here in vic or do I need to heat them as well any other care tips would be great please.

Got be closely matched in size, else the skink will kill and eat the frogs or visa-versa.

Don't know about the needs of the frogs but the water skinks need 5% UVB and a basking spot at about 36oC.
I've kept water skinks and they are very cool ,entertaining and very inquisitive and smart little skinks. Mine loved splashing about in their pond, and were very tame.
