Random question. I know that you are not supposed to mix dart frogs because of hybridization. However, is it possible to mix only male dart frogs? I have read that typically the Dendrobates Auratus do pretty well in groups with more minimal aggression. So, could 2-3 males of different morphs of Auratus be placed in the same vivarium? Genuinely just curious. Thanks!

Mixing males?
So, there's a difference between what you CAN do and what you SHOULD do.
Are you legally able to keep different locales of frogs together? Yes, there's no law against it.
Mixing locales still comes with the rest of the risks, and, given that it's usually beginners who want to mix species there's still a chance that you don't in fact have only males

Considering most dart frogs are sold as froglets, finding males from different morphs would be a challenging process. You buy a group of froglets and raise them up and select a calling male. Now you have to sell the others. Now repeat the process until you have your desired group. The time, space, and shipping costs would be a bit of a challenge.
Once you have the group you can see if they all get along and if the bolder morphs out compete the shyer ones.
