Deep Water and Dart Frogs

[DigitalPunk]

Mantellas are excellent swimmers! Mine are regularly seen darting across the water (they swim lightning fast).

My Sons Darts don't go in the water in his tank often. I have only seen them soaking their butts in it and not swimming.

Ok thanks! I am trying to convince my dad to let me build either a 7 foot long plywood tank, or a 4 food long acrylic tank :P I will have to see how that goes, bu it will most likely house some of these

Ahh Azureus Those are the Darts my son picked as well. He has 2 of them. They are great fun to watch during the day. They are pretty bold and a very active in his terrarium

Ya I would like tog et some other species eventually, but am holding back for now until I get some more experience with darts in general Also, I have heard that darts will drown eachother? I read somewhere that the females will sit on a different females head and drown them. Don't know if this is true or not.
