Some more pictures and details about my dads dart frog tank.

This tank is home to 5 Dendrobates Tinctorius
4 cobalt and 1 Azureus.
All live plants
The back wall is made of lava rock and great stuff foam covered in coco fiber with a waterfall coming down the back left side

 The light is the Fluval Aqua Fresh & Plant 2.0 LED, 36-46" which has worked really well and I’ve seen amazing growth from.

 We went with the Fluval A3976 Wifi LED controller because we wanted the automation which makes it really nice. Plus I love having a timer for it to dim during the mid day storm when the misting system kicks on.

 The tank itself is the Exoterra 36” x 18” x 24”

We use the Josh’s Frogs fruit fly culture media.

 And here’s the foam we used to construct the back wall

@bettsplendens Most of those photos were just after he got the frogs. They were skinny then but plump now

Good to hear! They’re really cute otherwise, and the viv looks great. 

Has there been any calling/breeding? I’d get rid of any eggs that result unless you’re 100% sure of the parentage, since you have potential for hybrids in there. if you watch carefully and get lucky with seeing a batch of eggs be laid and fertilized, you can be sure of the parentage that way and get some tads.
