Here is my mid-progress build log for Ranitomeya Variabilis 'Southern'. My main aim with this project is to imitate the conditions of a Cloud Forest, and contrast this to the rainforest build I currently have for my Leucs. Lots of my inspiration for the build came from exploring the Monteverde...

Have any of you guys tried to make a biotope vivarium or paludarium? I want to experiment with making my setups as biotopes of the environment that my future frogs will come from. I haven't decided on what variety of frog I want yet but I want to replicate their environment as much as possible...

Today I'd like to share with you my (nota bene) pet project - a biotope vivarium inspired by the Loreto region in Peru. All non-moss, non-algae plants, and vertebrate inhabitants, were demonstrated within the borders of the region. Sadly, it's not possible to realistically recreate a piece of...

So yesterday I had some time on my hands and decided to use an old used exo terra for a quick terrarium build. The goal was to use materials that I had lying around so I didn't need to buy any new materials for this build. I wanted to make it simple and quick so I didn't use any great stuff...

This tank all started with a hike in the woods. I was hiking with my girlfriend and we stumbled upon a Spring Peeper in some wetlands. Her and I were very excited and decided we would go home and put together a tank for him to live in. We temporarily housed him in a 5 gallon water bottle with...

In talking with people who have traveled to areas of Central America and visited populations of D. auratus and O. pumilio, one of the things I noticed is there comments about how they would often find frogs in trash piles and among human debris (some of the highest population densities I've...
