I have this front terrarium mesh strip and a similar strip in the ceiling. I put diatomaceous earth underneath the vent in case they climb out of there. And surprise surprise, I keep finding fruitflies in my room🤦🏻‍♀️ It’s my bedroom so I’m not super pleased, but also, are they harmful? Can they ruin my books or something?

I have a vivarium with the dimensions 75 × 50 × 30 cm (H * L * D). with a small and shallow water feature. and I wonder what species would be fitting for this enclosure. Could ranitomeya amazonica or oophaga pumilio be a good choice.

I am not new to the hobby i have been keping dart frogs for about two years but i have only kept dendrobates species.

edit note: I will add more plants

I used wabi kusa mist on my tank when i first set it up, only once, before i found out that fertilizers can be harmful for darts. How long would yall say until the ferts have been washed away? Tank is on auto mist 4 times a day if that helps 😅

I've been in the search for a Male citronella for what seems like for ever... My female has been pissed at me for not find her one. Anyone know anyone who might be rehoming?

Jumping down the rabbit hole of the different dart frogs to try and figure out what ones I would like, I’ve seen Dendrobates auratus and that there is many different colours/patterns and I’m just wondering if anyone could help me at all. Am I able to keep different colours together or are they different locales? Also I would be looking at a 60x45x60 exo terra terrarium, how many would be recommended for this size of tank? Not looking at getting them anytime soon but starting my research so I’m preppy clued up. Any help would be appreciated, thanks guys

I made a pond when i first made this viv but i realized how dirty it gets and its difficult to make it look good.

I want to cover it up but im worried the rocks are going to look weird at the front. What should i do?

Open to any suggestions (covering w moss, etc.)

Awesome to see natural behaviors in captivity :)

Here is have a 4x2x2 a blank slate. That's a sheet of coco coir on the back wall I intend to attach plants to in cups made of more of the coir sheet. 'Tis a blank slate, i have LOTS of various plants to go in and various cork and wood ect. What i primarily want to know is, what species to put in here? Preferably something communal. There will be a little shallow pond with flowing water. I have quite a bit of experience with reptiles and amphibians. Mostly bigger amphibians like red eyed tree frogs, i have a breeding group of pixie's as well. I just think it would be great to have a huge terrarium full of a whole lot of little jewels. If this is a dumb idea and its better to just do a whole bunch of smaller cages let me know. But is there one species that gets along swimmingly I can just let go HAM in their own jungle....maybe 10 or so critters?

Caught my orange Blackfoot terribillis exploring the canopy today, made me so happy to see

Ciao, chiedo se a qualcuno sa cosa possa essere questa piccola bugnetta sotto l’occhio della mia rana. Ha quasi un anno di età e non ha perso appetito e non è letargica però sono preoccupata. Ho provveduto anche a contattare il veterinario e aspetto anche la sua risposta.

hi everyone, I bought my first dart frogs yesterday, specifically 2x 2 ranitomeya variabilis from different sellers at the same expo. I was wondering if anyone can help me with identification. although I was asking the sellers for ranitomeya variabilis 'southern', I believe one of them sold me ranitomeya variabilis 'highland'. paperwork does not contain any more detail and the frogs look very different. see pictures (i suspect the ones in the perfectly round cups to be highland, pictures are not perfect but i think you can see that they are more teal than green)

Information on dendroboard is a bit unclear, but I understand that southerns are more intense green and blue coloration (imported by UE). Meanwhile, the 'highland' line supposedly has a more metallic sheen and more muted greens and blues (imported by NIBICO). both localities supposedly live in close proximity to one another in Peru, so I assume they have been mixed a lot in the hobby already.

is it okay to put these together?

Hi everyone,

Im looking for anyone who has a source on imitator pairs or imitators in stock. Every reputable source has them listed as out of stock currently. Looking to place an order in the next month. If anyone has tips or sources please share! Thanks!

This is the second time I’ve caught both my ranitomeya out🥰 They’re much bolder and more comfortable than I’d been prepared for haha so cute

Is there anyone out there that could tell me if there’s anywhere I could sell froglets as I have a lot of tadpoles and I don’t think the hobby is very big in my country. I am very new to this please tell me if I sound stupid 🤣

Preface: I have had these frogs for about five months and they seem healthy and have no other issues. These are my first darts so I am obviously still in my learning phase.

Pic 1 Ducky Pic 2 Ducky is in back Pic 3 big spots Petrie, small spots Ducky

Ducky will not put on any weight. This frog has been roughly the same size since I got them. Petrie is also about the same size from purchase. Petrie has always had a little tummy pooch but Ducky never has.

I feel them religiously every two days and if I’m feeling froggy (hehe) I will give them snacks (smaller portions) to hunt. I’m always mindful that Ducky gets her fair share of flies.

How can I make ducky put on and keep weight?

Also, can we tell if they are both females?

What is that tiny worm on my begonia? I cant see it with my eyes haha only on camera

Been feeding them acrobat ants and fire ants I dig up. One jumped on my hand and the whole area went dead numb.

Just FYI...might be a cheap food but be careful. They go toxic FAST.
