A number of years ago dusting with paprika was common among dart frog enthusiasts in an attempt to help retain the orange and yellows in various species. Many people claimed it worked well for them. I did it too for a while(I still kept darts back then) and was never completely certain if it was helping or not. Today there are better color supplements out there. Regardless of whether paprika helps with color or not it is certainly harmless.
