Building a tank have a few questions

[deranged chipmunk]

I'm a mantella and tree frog guy. Alex, i am sure, can give you better recommendations on the frogs themselves. Although i must say, i am a huge fan of leucomelas

Dendrobates Leucomelas, Dendrobates Auratus, and Dendrobates Azures are the ones that interest me the most.... The waterfall I still dont know what im doing yet, im going to look around at different filter types, tho just browsing undergravel filters and that might be a good idea for the waterfall.... I'm getting a simular misting system that will cover the whole tank, and thinking about doing something fancy like an out of the tank fogger that will have fog comming out of a skull in the a higher part of the tank and have it misting out of the mouth or something....

you intrigued me with small gecko's and would like to do some research into that, but i think they would require a bigger food source, and that food source might stress out the frogs.

also keep in mind all the products im linking is just me googling the type i want and linking so you guys can see the idea, not saying im buying that brand

I have both, leucomelas, and auratus ...sorry... I can not imagine them sharing a tank. ie The auratus are so shy, so private. Where as the leucs love to climb,will sleep in higher portions of the enclosure and will hunt their food in a wide open areas of the enclosure. It's my impression/opinion the auratus would be so easily stressed by their presence. Their behavior is so different from the leucs. The leucs are never hiding and the auratus are hardly ever visible. I'm blessed by their visit in the open.

The leucs are quick , curious and fearless.
The auratus have slower more purposeful plans about where they are headed and will jump out of sight in a second.

Good luck with whatever you decide.

A nice chablis, maybe a white merlot? Lol

[pogigod]

are leucs that intimidating for others?

[pogigod]

is there any where to research what goes well with others?

That's a great question?
I don't know if they actually will intimidate other darts?

My observation of them is that they are like a 24/7 frog movie !

while i don't like directing people to other forums. this thread is an extremely informative look at mixing. a bit of background. the author, Ed, is the big man of the herp dept at the Philadelphia Zoo. he is also one of the leading guys in the country when it comes to darts. i found this fascinating. you may as well http://www.dendroboard.com/forum/beg...-exhibits.html

if i may, i wouldn't say they are "intimidating". but let's say you have a very timid dog, and you were to toss a wild toddler in the mix, it would stress the dog out to the point where it may hide and you will never see it as long as the rambunctious toddler is about. Lynn, would you say that is a fair analogy?
