    Hello Everybody, long time follower first time poster. I set up a 20 gallon long vivarium about 8 months ago, got substrate/lid/ventilation/misting/plants/leaf litter/fruit flies all figured out let the tank grow in through the winter and bought a couple of azureus juveniles about 5 weeks ago...

    I have 4 melanogaster cultures (overkill, I know) that I started a couple weeks ago. I only have two auratus at this time and the supply is much greater than their demands. At this point, I've removed the vast majority of mature flies from the cultures into a holding container... I'd estimate at...

    I've seen some posts around here talkin' about dendrocare and repashy calcium plus but they're nowhere to be seen in the shop I buy most of the terrarium related stuff at. Before I search for 'em in more faraway places I wanna know if the supplements i give to my brown anole would be suitable...

    Hello everyone. I have a 40 gallon setup with 2 Dendrobates Auratus housed in it. I’ve done some research and my general question is basically what time of day is best to feed my dart frogs. I read somewhere that evening time is best. I typically work from 5-10 so I leave the house at 4:30. I...

    I had a few questions about feeding froglets: 1: is vitamin A necessary? I've gotten conflicting answers on this. The general consensus seems to be it isn't necessary for froglets, but won't hurt adult frogs. If this is the case, at what point should I begin to supplement with it? 2: I notice...

    3 3 Leuc Juveniles. One of them really likes to hang out on the left side of my tank. I was worried the fella in the first pic was looking thin. They aren’t very active, although I guess it’s to be expected because they’re fairly new. I feed them a lot. I know sphagnum carpeting isn’t ideal, I...

    How many flies should I feed three leuc juveniles? In terms of number of flies, or tablespoons, or whatever. I was planning on maybe a tablespoon every day for the three when they're juveniles? Lemme know what you think

    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...

    Do I just bought a dart frog from this trash pet shop because I could not find them anywhere else. However, I was slightly worried that they were skinny but I thought it may be because they we’re froglets in a ten gallon planted and we’re having a hard time finding food. I have since moved him...

    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...

    Female P. terribilis 'Blackfoot Orange' -- excited during a feeding frenzy, adult females during breeding season will often pounce on or spar one another over prime feeding grounds. These bouts are usually quite brief and instigated by one or two dominant animals.

    Now that it is lightly freezing at night in my region, I notice that the poison frogs are eating less. Until recently I fed them daily. For some time now every two days. There are enough fruit flies daily. Should I maybe stretch it to 3 days? It is 72F during the day and 66F at night. Thank you.

    I have two F1 yellow back Dendrobates Tinctorius froglets and I’m struggling with feeding them. From what all I have read you should feed them every three days, mine won’t eat every three days but if I wait longer they eat, they go almost a week or so between feeding and it honestly worries me...

    I've gotten fruit flies from 3 different vendors but nothing seems to help. My fruit flies keep becoming capable of flying again within a few weeks. Is there any way to prevent this?

    Hello everyone! I currently have 4 leuc froglets in a 35 gallon hex tank (temporarily; once I have a pair of confirmed males, I'll only be keeping those two in this tank). They all seem to have staked out little territories and I don't see them interact with each other much, but I'm concerned...

    Hello everyone my name is Corey and I am new to keeping poison dart frogs. I have just one frog at the moment ( dendrobates auratus) housed in a 40 gallon breeder tank. The tank temperature is kept at about 75 degrees and humidity stays around 85%. My question is in regards to feeding my frog...

    Hi all, I have a particularly shy frog who sometimes doesn't emerge to eat until hours after I feed, by which time the flies have cleaned most of the supplement dust off their bodies. I use a banana slice as a feeding station, and was thinking about sprinkling a little bit of supplement...
