What about galactonotus, they are a big and brave frog, come in red, orange and yellow.
A little more pricey than the ones already mentioned but for 2 frogs not that bad. Just a matter of preferance. I started with the auratus (b/b) and as they got older they got braver.
In the end it is about how much you want to spend and what you want.

Good luck!

I wouldn't rule out the green colors.. In a dark leaf litter tank, I personally think they pop!

Just an opinion

From what you have described, I would suggest leucs. Not only are they bright and bold, but they also have a great call. With tincs and auratus you won''t have this added quality.

I would seriously suggest that after you properly clean - sanitize the hex, you redo the areas where the silicone has been eaten away.

While a pdf tank isn't expected to hold water like a fish tank, if you do a false bottom, you will be having water build up. Additionally, any area where the silicone has been chewed that won't be expected to be underwater will be better if you do a quick reseal and smooth, imo.
