Q's about darts in general.

[ColleenT]

i am trying to read all i can right now and asking Q's. Thanks.

i have made my decision to get 2 Azureus. I got myself a 20 high tank, i ordered a conversion kit lid from junglebox, i ordered Josh's false bottom leca type stuff, substrate barrier, abg mix, long fiber, sphagnum moss, live oak leaves, and 2 springtail cultures. and a coconut hut. i want to find a couple pods, little ones. i also got a manzantita? branch. this is all on it's way now, and i can let everything settle in the tank. i still need LED lights, and i can get pothos at Lowes.

Q- if i order the frogs online from the same dealer, do i need to quarantine them each separately, or can i QT together? is it always better to QT separate? how long do i need to QT, and do i need to have anything specific in the QT tank? i was thinking, damp paper towel, and a hide area.

Q- how many melanogaster per juvie frog per day? i worry about them hiding. i do plan to have springtails in the viv, but want to offer FF.

next Q- do you put the entire culture of springtails into your tank, or do you remove the charcoal?

on Josh's Frogs site they said you can mix the charcoal along with them into your ABG mix (which already has some charcoal as well) or you can add them separately by pouring water into the container so they float and then pouring that into the viv.

i was asking what each of you do personally.

I am still trying to establish my culture before I add any..... not sure how it's going, but so far I don't see many moving around so I am assuming it's not "booming" yet so I am waiting. I had two cultures sent, and it was a question of whether or not enough survived the heat to add some right away and start a culture so I just threw them all into a culture.

But when I am ready, I am going to just dump a few in with the water method. Mine came in an ABG mix to start, and I put them into a charcoal culture.
