    So what type of dart frog do you guys think would be best displayed in this tank? I have an affinity for Ranitomeya, but really I would consider any of the thumbnail frogs. I potentially will only be able to have this one tank aside from my display tank so it needs to be a damn nice frog. As such, price is pretty much not a variable in my decision.

    If you could only keep one kind of dart frog and are restricted to this size enclosure, what would it be?

    As it's vertical, I would personally stay with thumbs. On top of the list, maybe a pair of R. vanzolini or R. fulgurita if of course if they were available...

    Very nice work. I love the modern look and the door design is so clean looking.

    Thanks for sharing this.... I'll be putting some of your design ideas into my notes to reference back on for some build :-)

    Wow it turned out great looking, wonderful job! I love how clean and modern it looks. The magnet thing is a cool thing to think about for my 10 gallon conversion I'll be doing within the next few months, thanks for sharing! And that video explained everything I needed to know, thanks for putting that up too, I was a bit perplexed. XD;

    WHY IS YOUR LIVINGROOM BLUE?

    Haha, it looks blue in a lot of pictures but it's actually a pretty neutral gray. The complex answer to why it looks blue is that the lights on the frog tank are a lot bluer than the lights in our kitchen, so the white balance of the picture is messed up to the point where I didn't feel like trying to correct it.

    Lol well on a more serious note, very very impressive tank. Very artistic, very creative, I love it, I love how it focuses on that amazing wood piece and how it looks very modern as well. I am just starting to get into darts now and just got done setting up my first small viv with an exo terra tank. Hopefully someday after I get a bit more experience ill be able to make a larger more creative and complex tank like yours ^_^
