    Now you're talking! That is the perfect thing to do while QT is under way. Keep tweaking the final home. In those 30 days you will learn how often you need to mist to maintain humidity without killing any live plants you have. It will also (as you said) allow any microfauna population to get established.

    I would also recommend that you get your FF culture 3 - 5 weeks before your frogs if you plan to culture your own. This will give you time to practice culturing and get a system down. Culturing FF is not hard, but takes a bit of practice to get the hang of. It is by far much more cost effective to buy 2 or 3 cultures and start making your own after that than it is to pay 9 or $10 for a culture from a local pet store or continually pay for the shipping expense.

    If you need any tips or tricks for that we can help I actually have a video of how I do it on my youtube channel. Link is in my Signature

    I do want to try growing my own FF cultures, though my husband does not have a problem with the expense of buying it from the pet store. I just like the thought of cheaper food source. I have a recipe for FF cultures in the poison dart frog care book I bought, plus I have seen videos on YouTube. So I know to let the food part of the culture cool for a day before adding flies. I will check your link. I might have seen one of your videos before.
