Like Paul, I kept them because they were less common, but really fell in love with them. They are like a combination dart frog and tree frog. Their care is like a a dart, but I found them to be temp sensitive as well. I didn't have much of an issue with them being secretive. They also need to have their seasons cycled to breed, like a tree frog. Something to keep in mind, especially if you are looking to breed your new charges.

Otherwise, they are great frogs and would highly recommend them. Joshua (mantellaguy) is one of the tops in the mantella world. Hopefully, he will chime in with a ton of excellent info
