I am thinking aurantiaca, simply cause the ones you will mostly find are captive bred. I think the other two are still wild caught a lot of the time.

"Most of the Madagascar's species are found nowhere else on Earth, and many of these are endangered or are heading that way. Mantellas are no exception, that is why I am considering obtaining some and attempting to breed them."
There's no better reasons in this hobby to breed in order to preserve a species any way we can. Congrats, Thomas. Have you already looked at some breeders?
Understory Enterprises have Mantella betsileo and Mantella madagascariensis, which I personally love the colors: Mantellas for Sale | Understory Enterprises.

Yes I would concur with Eric's statement for obtaining Mantellas. Unfortunately, you will have to wait until late summer/early fall. This is due to the fact that it is when Mantellas will spawn. And I like your thinking behind why you want to breed them. Kudos my friend!
