Mold???

There are a couple of good online shops. I like to get mine from here. They have cheaper shipping rate on live insect and they come in a modified ABG mix so you can just dump it straight into your tank under the moss. After a couple weeks the population will boom and you will have all the Springtails you will ever need. If it will be a while before you add frogs to the tank (2 - 4 weeks) than I would add the "Springtail food" to your order from NEHerp. It is just brewers yeast. You put a small pinch in the terrarium and lightly mist it. The yeast will mol dover night and the Springtails will flock to it and eat the mold. Just add more yeast every couple days or when you see all the previous yeast is gone.

If you are getting a Dart frog for this tank than the Darts will snack on the springtails from time to time .

Great info! Exactly the site I was looking for! My frog is kinda tiny right now. Would I need to add more food to the soil for the springtails until he's big enough to start pooping enough to feed them? I'm also considering getting him a friend for the tank but want to wait til he's big enough that I can try and sex him (I really have no idea if its a "him" i just refer to him that way haha). The tank is definitely big enough.
