    Hi All! I recently bought a trio of "el cope" from joshs frogs. They are really young, maybe 2 months out of the water. What surprised me was their color. I have one green with a tint of blue, one turquiose, and one VERY blue. (Again they are babies so no bronze yet.) After asking about their...

    * Hello everyone! I’ve recently come upon an awesome opportunity. A friend of a friend is willing to ship me a large aquarium cabinet, about 80 gallons. Roughly 49”x20”x20”. * Is this too big for a first vivarium? I plan to get some hardscaping and tropical plant care practice first with a...

    I ran into a problem I didn't expect to have at a point in my frogkeeping life. I moved my D. Auratus into their new enclosure 3,5 weeks ago and now they mostly gorge themselves on the very prolific springtail population in the tank. I don't worry about them starving, because their bellies are...

    I am currently keeping Auratus (1.25 years) and Theloderma corticale (6 months). For my next frog I want to get a thumbnail. Currently I am leaning towards ranitomeya Imitator, over something like an oophaga pumilio. According to the care sheets and general feedback on this site they seem to be...

    Hello! New here, but I’ve been stalking for years. Finally got my frogs about 10 months ago. They were 4ish months at the time. One of them has always been on the thin side, but nothing that had gotten worse— until somehow it injured a back leg and it wasn’t putting weight on it. Took it to the...

    Never had a dart frog or reptile of any kind, and looking to keep two leucs or auratus. I thought I'd check with the internet before buying them I’m planning to use a 24x18x24 terrarium. I'll have a false bottom (drainable), and coconut fiber on top (with leaf scatter). I'll have a wall on the...
  10. Breeding, Eggs & Tadpoles
    Hi there! I've got a breeding trio of auratus, and I'm going to need to start culling future clutches of eggs. I have two egg huts that they like, but I had a random question. Has anyone seen their frogs stop using the same laying sites, presumably because their eggs keep disappearing from...

    Hi All, Last month I bought my first dart frogs so I'm new to the hobby, I've been doing research for a while before I got them and set up a 24x18x18 bio-active tank for 2 black and blue auratus frogs, with springtails as a microfauna, All seems to going well except that one of my dart frogs...
  12. Food & Feeding
    Does anyone know if D. Auratus will take firebrat as a feeder insect? I am currently feeding mostly Melanogaster and some Hydei as well as occasionally reseeding with springtails to make sure there is always sufficient food available. I am thinking about diversifying the options a bit more and...

    Hey I’m looking to add some More frogs to the three i already have I’m being offended some of the same kind that are 3 months out of water can anyone tell if that size would work with my three who are already full grown?
  14. General Discussion
    I recently noticed that my male auratus that has been calling for ~ 1 month started bullying one of my other frogs that I assume is also male. I noticed him jumping on top of the other frog who doesn't seem to defend himself, so there is no wrestling and starting yesterday I also noticed him...

    I own what I assume to be 2 male and 1 female auratus (mostly because of body shape, but I also witnessed one male calling). Today I caught footage of my female following the calling male around constantly pawing at him, but he doesn't appear to be really into it. My third frog is not fazed by...

    I am quite excited. I had my auratus for 7 months now and they are around 13 months old. Over the last few weeks I sometimes heard someone in the tank calling, but only ever for a short time. This morning I catched a glimpse of 2 off my frogs sitting on a branch with another one close behind...

    So from what I understand, young frogs should be fed daily, and mature frogs get fed more like 3-4 times per week. But how do you know when to start transitioning the feeding schedule? I have 3 auratus that I got as tiny froglets in late October. They are 2-3x the size they were when I got...

    Hey all, Out of my 3 Auratus I have only seen one for the last few days. I assume it is because I was more active in their tank because I try to fight of a slug infestation with cucumber slices, although I try to limit access to times when the light is out (usually 2 hours before it turns on...
