    Yeah that's what I thought about the sexing.
    When I get the other frogs I should be able to compare and get a rough idea of sexes,
    the frog is a juvenile but I can't say how many months because I don't know.
    The fruit flies were a small pot given to me by the shop I bought him/her from and as I already have good cultures going I decided to just add those now (around 25) then feed him/her daily with my normal cultures.
    I don't usually add so many fruit flies to last longer than one day.
    Thanks for the advice its much appreciated :-)
    How many frogs of this species could I comfortably keep in this viv?
    Its a 45x45x60 exo Terra.
    Thanks again

    I think like most dart frogs they work well in groups until they mature and then you may need to split them into mating pairs and sell off the ones you don't wan to keep. In a tank your size I would think 4 - 5 would be good. 5 may be a bit to crowded, but if the tank is designed and planted with some breaks in line of site for the frogs than that will help.
