We present an interface that allows us the execution of cosmological simulations by combining the capabilities of two different codes: FLY, a parallel treecode for N-Body simulations, and FLASH, a code for numerical hydrodinamic.This task is reached without heavy modifications of the codes, but by means of an interface that handles the communications between them. The underlying hypothesis is that the two codes are only loosely coupled, i.e. they interact only by exchanging the information to build the gravitational
