  1. General Discussion
    Hey everyone! Just hopping on here to see if anyone else has had the same issue as me and could possibly hand out some advice. I have a quartet of R. Variabilis southerns and I managed to get my first clutch of eggs not only from this pairing, but ever, and they still haven’t seemed to hatch...
  2. Breeding, Eggs & Tadpoles
    Hi everyone ! This is my first post and english isn't my first language so sorry in advance for the possible mistakes... So I have been keeping 2 R. imitator varadero in a 18x18x24 for 3 months now, at least one started singing a month and a half ago, but i can't really check if the other one is...
  3. Beginner Discussion
    Hey everyone. I recently accepted a varadero rehome in a very overgrown 12'x12"x18" enclosure. I'll attach pictures of the enclosure when I recieved it, the frog, and what it currently looks like after a bit of TLC. The issue I'm having is that I rarely see the frog, which causes me some anxiety...
  4. Food & Feeding
    So these frogs are notoriously sensitive as juveniles and providing adequate supplementation is difficult, in any of your experiences how long before they actually begin taking dusted flies?
  5. Ranitomeya
    I have 22 Ranitomeya tadpoles in separate deli cups all doing well. I have done some research which is backdating about 10 years stating that Ranitomeya will cannibalise raised together in a fish tank setup with filters like you can do with the bigger dart frog species. If I create a habitat...
  6. Beginner Discussion
    Hi all, I am starting my research on dart frogs and preparing to make my vivarium. I have done a lot of research and cannot seem to find clarification on this. I am thinking about going with 2 Ranitomeyas but I have seen that due to their somewhat aggressive nature, they do best in MF pairs. I...
  7. Beginner Discussion
    Hi Everyone, I am new to the community as well as to dart frogs. I have a nice healthy vivarium that has been growing for about 2 months. I plan on introducing a Ranitomeya in the next few weeks. The tank currently has a healthy springtail population, but I am wondering if this enough food for...
  8. Identification Forum
    Wondering if anyone has any guesses as to what sex this frog could be? It is still pretty young, about 5 months out of water so it may be too soon to tell.
  9. Beginner Discussion
    I am currently letting my enclosure for a pair of ranitomey imitator grow in and was wondering how many unsexed frogs to buy to have a good shot at a pair, without sitting on a dozen frogs that I need to find new homes for later. Do you just start with 2 and hope you get lucky? Alternatively I...
  10. Parts & Construction
    I tried to read up on the use of calcium bearing clay substrate, but had the feeling it is getting used mostly for Oophaga, since they morph so small. From my research so far R, Imitator morphs larger and while taking only Springtails in the beginning can be switched to dusted flies faster. Do...
  11. Beginner Discussion
    I searched the forum about warning too many flies, but I couldn't find any posts about how to fix the problem. I got one vanzolinii a few days ago but I fed what I thought was 20 flies (as recommended by a breeder) but now day 2 there's still a ton of flies left in his quarantine bin, which is...
  12. Parts & Construction
    I used the relative calm after christmas to start constructing my next build. It will house either Ranitomeya Imitator 'green' or Ranitomeya variabilis. After the very constructive discussion I still can not decide, which I like better. I will also have to see if I can even find a breeder for...
  13. Beginner Discussion
    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...
  14. Parts & Construction
    I have these two pieces of driftwood that I want to use in my 18x18x24. Do you think they could be used freestanding? The left one has a very large bottom, but the right one I want to prop against the wall, similar to the second picture. The tank shall house a pair of Ranitomeya Imitator...
  15. Beginner Discussion
    Hey there! Thought I would start a thread on tips and tricks to help see your frogs more often - many of the species and locales we deal with in the hobby can be shy, and these tips can help you see more of them. Please add your experience and thoughts! I will start with 2: 1 - Lower light...
