if you understand their needs the common dart frogs are easy to keep. its best if yah have a bit of a green thumb as they do best in planted tanks. my suriname cobalt tincs have proven simple to take care of, and routeenly beg for food. D. azureus, auratus, leucs, tincs ect are simple to keep. the main thing to remember is with tincs and azureus 2 females will fight and its best to keep them singly or in pairs


here are the tincs, cant find a pic of their completed tank though, i need to get some


here is the D. azureus tank though its a bit more overgrown now

Awesome everybody:)


I'm getting ready to set up a 40gallon long tank for my 5 Dendrobates auratus(green and bronze). I just got these guys not too long ago and I already greatly enjoy having them. I just sprayed them down and the male(s) are calling:)
