Hello,

I've been thinking recently about adding all links I could find on Frog Forum concerning dart frogs, from care sheets to articles about breeding, fruit flies cultures, building suitable vivarium, etc., in one document. The goal is to create a one-stop information center for the dart enthusiast, from the beginner to the expert. I will add a link to this thread to the group Dendrobates. Please feel free to add any other articles that you find pertinent or that might have helped you.

Note: You will find a whole section on Dart Frogs and Mantellas on this forum here.

I hope this will be of help yo you.

Care sheet:

1. Imitating Dart Frog, Ranitomeya imitator / Dendrobates imitator , by John Clare.

Breeding:

1. Raising Thumbnail Dartfrog Tadpoles (Ranitomeya) by John Clare.

Fruit Fly Culturing:

1. Fruit Fly Culturing, Care and Feeding - Everything you need to know about Drosophila by John Clare and Paul Rust.

Terrarium/Vivarium

1. Building Dart Frog Terrariums / Tropical Terrarium Construction by John Clare.

2. 10 gallon vertical dartfrog terrarium construction by John Clare.

3. New Viv Construction - pic heavy, by Don Lisk.

4. 55 Gallon Vivarium Build by MikeM670.

5. New vivarium - Crowdsourcing on Frog Forum by Eric Robillard. This thread is more of an exchange on the different possibilities of building a vivarium for darts, from a clay background, to plants, etc.

So here you go. There is much more on Frog Forum, but this should help you start!
