I have two darts. They've been living together perfectly fine for a while now. One has always been more shy than the other, so when I haven't seen him a lot in the open a while, I didn't think much of it. Today, however, he climbed onto the wall of the terrarium and my heart dropped. He is literally skin and bones and I am terrified. I immediately got a smaller container, cleaned it, poked some holes in it, put towel paper and a few pothos cuttings, put them in and sprayed everything down. I transferred him to the container securely with a leaf and tried tong feeding him some hydei, but he's refusing to eat. I put some flies in in hopes he will at least eat something. No veterinary ambulance is working right now, what the fuck am I supposed to do? I am so scared that it is too late. Could anyone give me any advice? Yes, I do feel like an awful owner and please don't rub it in my face that I should've panicked sooner. Any help is greatly appreciated, by me and by Albert.
I’ve seen some amazing set ups here, just sharing my first time set up, no frogs yet for some time, just cycling! Thanks for all the inspiration.
I've currently got a Juwel Lido aquarium as a vivarium. I'm interested in Phyllobates terribilis because they can take larger prey than fruit flies.
Would a pair of them do well in this size tank, or would you recommend a smaller species? I also enjoy various Ranitomeya, but I'm a bit scared that a fruit fly culture crash can put me in a difficult situation since they are hard to come by around here.
I was wondering where everyone stood on housing both dart frogs and mourning geckos together. Though it sounded cool but figured I’d ask before I put any time or effort into it.
Does anyone here breed blue sipaliwini or have any subadult females looking for new homes? I’ve looked everywhere and can’t find any anywhere. But I see people on Facebook getting them all the time
18x18x18
Spent a good while researching fruit fly mixes. Settled on one. Made it. And now I'm here wondering how I'm going to get the food inside the existing culture without freeing a bunch of flies. I imagine like a syringe or turkey baster might work. But what do you guys use?(links appreciated)
Can't wait to see these guys as froglets!
So, I think there might be a tiny house spider in my viv. I haven't seen it, but it looks like there is a small piece of webbing that's caught a tiny piece of moss. How bad is this?
Well it’s time to seriously upgrade my thumbnails enclosure from the tank I purchased them in.
Went shopping yesterday and found some cool wood pieces to get the creative juices flowing!
My spray foam background has large air pockets on all sides of my tank. The wall feel really sturdy but was wondering if they might fall off or come in done?
My method for building it was covering the glass in silicone, waiting for it to dry, then spraying expanding foam on it.
Hey everyone,
I am finding a lot of conflicting advice when trying to search for a tank size for Azureus tincs.
I am seeing a lot of people say 18x18x24 is perfect and others say its way to small. Does anyone have any advice what tank to go with?
I like the idea of having built in drainage which functionally limits my options to the exoterra tree frog version or the insitu ecosystems.
Is it worth saving up for insitu? And if so, which size should I get?
Thank you everyone so much for the advice
found this in my dart frog vivarium. is it a predatory mite? this guy crawls FAST
I am setting up a dart frog vivarium (18x18x24 inches) in a corner of my room on my desk and need some opinions on how I orient/design it.
I would ideally love to plant/cover as much of the walls as I can. So ideally I see two options- make two walls covered and have 2 walls clear (the walls of the corner covered), or orient the vivarium at a 45 degree angle and do all three walls.
Anyone have any suggestions based on what theyve done in their past?
I have recently spotted tiny worms in my frog terrarium. They live inside the wood and come out when i water the terrarium. Does anyone have the same experience? Are they danger to the frogs?
Found on Isla Cristobal, Panama Had a brief look and looks like a Dentrobatidae species which is endemic further south but would appreciate clarification !
I need some advice. My frogglet looks like this but he is not coming out of the water. Should I take him out or he is not ready yet?
Hello everyone I got a 2 part question. I have 2 tadpoles with all legs already formed and my question would be how long do they take to get our of the water after the legs are formed and how would that work? Do I take them out or they do it themselves? Thanks in advance!
