Hi there Val, Welcome to the forum . We are all crazy here..about frogs that is.. So you have come to the right place for sure .
You asked to meet me so here goes. I am really crazy. I live on the Kings River in heaven; it is 20 acres 3 acre lake, ¼ mile of river front and a trout stream. Been here forty years. We have at least a million tree frogs (Even living in our house); so what am I doing? I have just started building a natural terrarium for a group of Dart Frogs. I am having a ball and can use all the help I can get.
Thanks for letting me share your Forum

Hi there Val, Welcome to the forum . We are all crazy here..about frogs that is.. So you have come to the right place for sure .
Welcome aboard.
Welcome...what kind of dart frogs are you interested in getting?
How did you guess that would be my first question? Looking for recommendations. Just bought the tank; 36 gal, nice top with all spectrum light and a few basic extras. I want my first frogs to be pretty, can be kept in small groups, and easy to care for and breed. Yes I want it all. Any advice?
My first book is "Poison Dart Frogs" by Amanda and Greg Sihler which I really like. What else would you recommend?
Thanks much
Val
I like the book "Professional breeder series: Poison Frogs" by Schmidt and Henkel. It has a lot of good info. If you want an easy to care for dart that is active and gets along well in groups I would recommend Leucs. They are very outgoing and fun to watch. Cobalts are my favorite darts but they are territorial and would be best as just a breeding pair. Terriblis is another very active frog that does well in groups. One of our moderators Eric has a group of them and he is extremely fond of them, although they can be a bit pricey. That's why I ultimately recommend the Leucs. You can't beat them as a very affordable, active, group frog. They are fun, easy, and hardy. Just my two cents. Let's us know what you decide. I look forward to seeing your tank build.
Thanks so much for you reply. I just got the book yesterday and only had time to drool over the pictures.
