Looking good . What have you got the cobalts in right now?

[John911]

A quarantine I got from the breeder.

[Diogo Juliao]

Really good looking! Congrats

Here in Portugal almost all the keepers are obsessed with the need of having the dart tanks extremely planted, but since I came to this forum, I realized most of the keepers on USA and other coutrys were this hobby is more developed give their frogs a lot of space to walk and just put some hides as in other rainforest species.

That's what I'm going to do with mine too

[John911]

Well she just planted it. Hoping it grows in a bit.

I don't think that's necessarily true. My terrariums are relatively sparsely planted, but I don't think that's the case for most dart frog enthusiasts in the US.

[Diogo Juliao]

Yes but nothing as you see in Portugal.

In here, if a terrarium has only 3-4 plants (and I'm talking about a 10 gallon tank) then it must be more planted. And this isn't what I see in most of the particular or institutonal (aquariums and zoos) tanks.
At least for tinctorius, which are a terrestrial specie.

That's why I liked John's tank, because it has a lot of space for the frogs to walk but several hiding spots too.

I may be wrong, but that's my idea of waht's correct: a middle-term...

The Cainarchi Imitators I got from John are coming out.

[John]

Cute . Got any more photos, John?

Not yet. The only camera I have right now is my cell and i'm lucky I caught that one.

Very nice vivarium and the Imitators are great frogs. Nice work!

[John911]

The imitators are rowdy little guys and really do seem to use the whole tank.

[John911]

Cute . Got any more photos, John?

here we go. cell phone pics in all their glory.

[John]

Cute! Do you find them to be bold for you?

[JimO]

Those are great looking imitators. Where did you get them?

I got them from john.

Getting better. I noticed one went into a hole in the substrate in back. Kind of odd.

[John]

Do they have many hiding places? Think they are a pair?

[John911]

There is a spot behind the waterfall/wood and a lot of bigger leaf litter. Do you think I should throw a hut in there?

[John911]

Few updated pics. The cobalts are doing great and grew a bit. Trying to figure out which are male and female.
