Before I continue, I have to thank Cheri for sponsering the 2011 Frog Forum Care Article Contest, because without that, I wouldn't be here right now. Cheri is providing everything I need to get started in this new part of the hobby. Thanks Cheri !! I am glad that I am looking into dart frogs instead of another fat frog like I had planned.

This is a thread that I will be updating alot hopefully. Cheri has shipped lots of stuff, and I will post pictures as the stuff comes in. I am expecting some plants tomorrow, so hopefully I can pictures of those up if they come in tomorrow. I will probably be purchasing the tank at PETCO around the 22nd of this month.

Cheri has already found a nice female Cobalt in my area that a breeder has for sale. She said she'd get a video up after I got this thread up, so I can't wait to see her!! I will be having some back-to-back camps, so I will probably be getting the female around July the 9th-ish. Cheri is going to try and pick up a male and ship him when the weather gets cooler (can't ship a frog in 100*F+ weather we are having in Texas!).

I really look foward to the experience of setting up a dart frog tank, and getting actual dart frogs!! 2 weeks ago I would have never thought... I will include plenty of pictures of what comes in the mail, and of the tank after I start with the Do It Yourself background and setup.

Again, I look foward to getting to know all of you! This is the same forum, but a whole new world for me. I am really excited about what will take place over the next few weeks!
Welcome to the Bright Side of Frog Keeping...eyeing all those pacman frog lovers!!! Darts are really cool. I know my 0.0.4 Dendrobates tinctorius 'Azureus' are really fun to watch. Very bold and stay active. The Cobalts are another really nice morph and I will get some in the future.

So what size tank are you looking for? Are you just going to have the pair? With the Petco tank sale coming it is a great opportunity to get a larger setup if you have the room. Be warned this can and is addictive and you may need help with all those other tanks your just gonna get "Just in Case"! By getting your tank as soon as you can this will allow you to take your time in the build and let it settle/grow in! I'm sure you will enjoy it greatly.
