Thx Mark. They are active and i like how they arent shy. Theyre a amazing looking frog.. Humidity stays above 80% and right now its 99% humidity. Temperature wise its ranges between 70 to 83 during the day and then it drops to 68 at night. It is 77 right now

I also had to quaratine the three chocolate leucs so they can get up to speed with their eating

Awesome tank. I like the way you created levels with the wood and still left open space in the front of the tank. Can't wait to see it grown in a bit. Leuc heaven for sure!

Thankss I learn so much from this tank since it was my first one ever built.

Looks really good from what I can see. Could you put up a large full tank shot?

Great looking tank. Just one word of caution: be careful when you trim the Diffenbachia, it has irritating sap. I've never used one in a dart viv, but I had some in a Polypedates dennysi tank and whenever they would break a leaf it would get on them and they were clearly uncomfortable. It took me a while to figure out what the problem was. They would rub themselves furiously, at first I thought they were shedding, then I got some of the sap on my hands when I was doing a little trimming and it all became clear. The leucs shouldn't be heavy enough to snap the leaves, but if yours are like mine then they will be crawling all in it, so just be aware when you trim. Good luck.

Very nice vivarium! It looks much better than it did!

Very nice tank. I love the levels you created using the wood as an edge. Nicely done. I hope it works out for you. Again...nice job and look forward to more pics

The picture is a bit small so I can't tell, but are you only using gravel for substrate?

Lol, Nope. What i basically did was a false bottom and put gravel around the edges and a little on top. I forgot to put a divider so my substrate doesnt mix in with gravel, o well. But i put another two inches of substrate. I will post of my recent fixes.

Thx

I decided to go on flickr and load my pics there and then i will upload them soon

Looks really good!!! Just curious (sorry if you said this somewhere) but is the whole bottom layer gravel or do you have a false bottom behind it? Just wondering cause if its all gravel that has to weigh A TON!! Lol

Beautiful tank regardless!!
