I'm pretty sure one vivarium has 3 auratis, (Nicaraguan Green and Black?) another vivarium has 2 azureus tincs, and the last vivarium has 2 robertus tincs. I'm not sure if I'm listing the names correctly, so I hope it's understandable. I believe they are all froglets and one adult auratis. I have 6 more froglets coming too: 2 Lucomela (Bumblee?), 2 Giant Orange tincs, and finally Phyllobates terribillis (Yellow). Each vivarium has a moring gecko as well. Feel free to correct me on any of the names. I'm here to learn!Hello!
What species of frogs are in the tanks?
I'm going to combine the froglets temporarily until I can get three new vivariums going. I was told that was ok? Please tell me if I'm wrong about this. Is this too many to keep, or do people usually just keep a few?Wow, that's quite a collection! Are you getting new tanks or combining species? Do you have any photos?
Thank you so much for your advice. I've been culturing the flies and springtails for a month or two in preparation. (There's also a reptile store with ff just down the street.) The 3 vivariums were all set up when they came - thank goodness. I already have the 6 so maybe I should say no to the other six. Very good point!I think that's probably fine (eg, combine them for a little bit) - TBC there are many people with FAR more experience than me here on the forums.
My biggest concern (if I were you) is that you went from 0 to 13 froglets in the span of ?days? without tons of time to prep: things like "what happens if you accidentally kill off your fruit fly cultures?" or "don't know how to get the misting cycle right" etc - suddenly the impact or cost of any mistake is magnified - because of learning and experimenting with 1, 2, 3 frogs - you're doing it with 13.
I (in my second entrance to the hobby) started with 4 thumbnail frogs and experimented with fruit fly culture timing, maintaining springtails, misting schedules, and vivarium maintenance. After 4 months of that, I added 3 Oophaga to the collection.
Of course you can do whatever works for you - my biggest thing would be making sure that you're able to learn and experiment without putting 13 frogs at risk just due to being new and learning!
