Starting a dart frog vivarium?

[Adellelys Oasis]

lol, no, carnivorous plants won't eat your frogs. sorry, i don't mean to laugh, but i giggle every time i hear that. it's been a debate on another forum for a while. venus fly trap would need intense lighting and a cold period to go dormant, so they would not work in a dart tank. most domestic pitchers, such as sarracenia species, grow way too large for a viv. some tropical pitchers, like nepenthes species, grow extremely slowly, but will eventually outgrow a viv. so.e even grow pitchers up to 12" in height. if you truly want a carnivore in your tank that won't consume aot of fruit flies, check out a sundew. drosera spatulata is a good candidate, due to it's tolerance of high humidity. keep inmind that not all sundews can handle high humidity. there are also some bladderworts that work, but they need a bog type situation to survive. i could go on and on about them, but my break at work is over....lol

Well that's pretty disappointing. I was really looking forward to putting those in my vivarium. lol But it's okay I'll find some other stunning plants to place in their.

there are an infinitesimal number of stunning plants you can use. there are many species of orchids that are well suited for vivariums, bromeliads (ugh, over used..lol), begonias, tillandsias, episcias, ect. it all depends on your taste and skill level.

Bromeliads are used so often because they are so easy to grow and keep alive. Also they are gorgeous. I already have a couple I plan on putting in my vivarium. ;P

I would love to see if this tank is done and what it looks like. It sounds like it would be a beautiful tank
