Hello again,

Hoping to get some help sexing our two frogs. We think it’s a male and a female, with the one on the coconut being the male. Any help would be appreciated! I can post more pics of needed.

Drainage layers

Curious if anyone else does their drainage like this (egg crate on top of pvc) offers perfect drainage imo, stays clean and my drainage bulkheads don’t clog up. Dumb pic at the end 🐸

Did some tadpole collecting this morning. Some frog/prop bin shots along the way.

All laying sites minus the giant film canisters come from the spotted frog llc. All tadpoles were collected from their products :)

My beauty, Orange meringue

This is my juvenile merin, im hoping for a girl because they are genuinely really well tempered. Merin is a type of phylobates morph, though I forgot the name. They are slowly losing a lot of the black they originally had 😭

Link is to the first tank I made that you guys absolutely destroyed me for, so after a lot of reading and video watching this is my mark 2. I'm planning on letting things grow in for a couple weeks before we finally have the frogs.

First Vivarium

Planning on getting some auratus in a couple of months once the plants are established and grown some. I have a couple broms that’ll be going in soon as well and a coconut hide. Have some left over mopani wood I’m trying to find a spot for. Tank is 18x18x24 and this is my first build so I’m pretty proud of it. Any input or recommendations would be great!

Good or bad mushroom?

This mushroom popped up in my 2 month old terrarium. Is it possibly harmful to my frogs?

How to keep temperature stable?

2 Upvotes

My room gets kinda cold in the winter, so it’s hard to keep the tank stable. I bought a heating mat that helps but it can drop to low 60s in some areas.

I don’t want it to drop too low. I also haven’t seen my frogs In a while, I think maybe they just found warm humid spots to hide.

Plants not growing?

2 Upvotes

Anyone else having an issue with plants taking forever to grow? I have 2 heartleaf philodendrons and they’re growing just painfully slowly. Ones shooting out about a little more than a leaf per month. I don’t think it’s root rot since the soils not saturated and my light is a nicrew c10. Could it be I need a better light?

My First Frogs Today!

2 Leucomelas. I was going to wait until Feb to get some Ranitomeya Southern, but I saw these poor guys at petco and caved.

(maybe not the best choice since big box breeders can be kind of shady and buying them perpetuates poor handling by big box stores)

Anyways, it is the best day of my life, I have fruit fly cultures started and my tank has been growing since June. I hope that I can give these guys a good life, and any suggestions welcome.

Tank is a 18 18 24 and has a mistking system dialed in. I dust my flies with repashy

Added leaf litter update

Post image
15 Upvotes

Added leaf litter to my terrarium. I think it's looking pretty good. I definitely need to order more leaves, though, lol. Any tips are appreciated.

Picture taken 3 days ago. Since then, I've had a huge mold spike. I'm not fully sure why it spiked after putting leaves in. Ill be getting more spring tails to deal with that on Monday and increase ventilation.

I think it'll be ready for frogs in time for Christmas.

(The glass isn't usually this dry, I wiped it down to get a nice picture)

Just planted my very first terrarium for 2 dendrobates tinctorius. (90x45x60cm)

I would appreciate any advice!

I feel like the ground might be too densely planted? I could barely get in any leaflitter 😅😅

Currently I keep quite a lot of frogs, but these are definitely my absolute favorites. They do not have any fear for me, jump on my hands and arms during maintenance and always sit in front waiting for their fruitflies.

Best tank size for a pair of Tincs?

Post image
25 Upvotes

I currently have a male & female pair of dendrobates tinctorius cobalt in an 18x18x18. I know this isn’t ideal, but these are my first dart frogs and I was told it would be just fine. Seeing them both in the tank definitely makes me realize how small it looks, so I wanted to upgrade them (which is kinda annoying considering how much went into this current tank lol). I’m torn between a 24x18x24 and a 36x18x24. My main dilemma is price. Obviously I want to give them the larger one, and if that’s what they need I’ll make it work. However, it’ll take up all my shelf space that I’m also using for some of my other tanks. At the same time, is that six-inch difference in a 24x18x24 really that much of an upgrade? Or should I just save up longer to get them the 36? Idk, maybe I’m just overthinking. I just want to make sure they’re thriving. I’ll put a picture of their current tank for reference
