I was watching closely the whole time waiting to see signs of aggression before splitting and never did. As for the drainage. One thing you need to know is terribs are prone to foot rot in stagnant poorly drained conditions so you really want to make sure you have a well draining substrate like abg and a good drainage layer below that.
I have and intend to use ABG mix in the layers and plan on a 1 1/2 - 2 inch drainage layer. Thanks for the info on the terribilis. Would the other tank I mentioned above (around 19"L x 17"W -- inside dimensions) work for the Terribilis? The bowfront is slightly deeper and would allow a little more space, but not much. Just trying to see if what I have already would work.

But for the future, assuming all goes well, my plan is to setup a sliding glass front-opening terrarium for ease of maintenance. Would the Terra Fauna tank I listed above be a good size for 2 frogs? Or would a 18 x 24 x 18 Exo Terra be better? The Terra Fauna tanks can have deeper substrate levels (up to about 6" I think), where as the Exo-Terras I think are around 4". These are my first dart frogs and I will be watching all carefully as they grow and mature for any signs of issues. Hopefully I will end up with true pairs (male/female).
