I have to say, that's ridiculous! Everything I have ever kept in captivity that was capable of reproducing has, and with great success. Either there have been many X-breeds produced from this tank and are kept off the boards (which I suspect is the case) or this is a PRIME EXAMPLE of why mixed tanks suck ass! lol. (Sorry, had to say it) My big worry now is that some new comer sees this and says "Hey, mixed tanks won't breed, which is perfect cuz I want all kinds of cool colors and don't want to deal with raising babies". (Unfortunately, I come from 30 years of an industry that lives by Murphy's Law!) If in fact they really have never reproduced then it should place a GIANT RED FLAG on the whole idea of a multi species, overcrowded vivarium.
I too would like to know who has acquired or has dibs on any potential offspring from this tank. I would not only avoid them and their close associates like the plague, but PM everyone and their mother who even thought about publicly posting interest in these frogs. I am finding (sadly I must admit) that there is a smaller and smaller community of dedicated froggers that I can trust when it comes to where their frogs originated from. There was a time when I would take a pet store or "Jobber's" word for it, but anymore NO WAY!!!! There are too many morphs/locales in the hobby now days to think that I could properly identify anything based upon looks alone. I may not have 7 years, but I have 3 years under the wing of over 30 years of experience.

It's all plain and simple... do what you will, we can't stop you but please try and do the right thing by encouraging newcomers and inexperienced froggers to learn the tools of the trade and the proper steps before filling their heads with BS that will most likely end up in an unsuccessful attempt in this hobby. This will only lead to bad experiences and discouraging people from this wonderful hobby.

Just my 0.02, take it or leave it, I really don't care. (Well, I do care but can't really do a whole lot about it)
