I would also consider leucomelas and terrbilis.
I would also consider leucomelas and terrbilis.
Phyllobates terribilis or P. bicolor would be great, they are both large, bold, group-friendly species.
Yeah...id have to agree either Leucs or Terribilis. If you can afford the Terribilis they would be my first choice.
Terribs, Galacts, Auratus, Tricolors, are all decent group frogs. Being new to darts I would probably go with auratus or terribs.

I think it is important to know what the temperatures and humidity values are before naming all species
In my opinion, best starter frogs among the Dendrobatidae are the ones that will forgive you some mistakes, wich you'll definetely make in the beginning.
D.leucomelas is capable of handling a wide variaty of temperatures for example, but doesn't go that well in a group with multiple females, if you like to breed them chances are you'll never see any clutches before aten by other females.
Another species, Epipedobates anthonyi (used to be tricolor)
In Holland THE beginners frog, because their boldness, easy to breed nature, doing well in a group, handling a wide variaty of conditions and making quit some sound.
i keep the temp in the frogroom between 75-80 humidity stays at 80 to 100% i may go with leucs i was looking at tricolors to but everything i have read says leucs would be the best beginner dartfrog god so much has changed in the last few years since i have been out of the loop but it is fun learning new things
