I love Azureus - my Bertha has been with me since the beginning, 8 yrs ago. They're such an awesome frog. Whenever I go to Lowe's to get some vivarium-sized plants, I whip out a pix of Bertha and I always get a very decent discount on the plants. Azureus are THE poison dart frog that everybody has seen and remembers.

Your tank is coming along nicely - do you have more planting to do? I noticed that my Azureus like to sit on something tallish, for some reason. After a bit, they'll come to recognize you, especially when it's feeding time.

Enjoy your beautiful babies - they ROCK!!

Hi Kristi,

They are juvies, about 5 months old, got them from a well-known Montreal breeder. This is how he presented them to me. I was initially supposed to get them from Mark Pepper at UE, like my P. terribilis and R. ventrimaculatus, but this was easier...

They were not my first choice, though... Like you said, everyone remembers the blue frog... And my son has been wanting them since he's first saw them... It was therefore a pleasure to get him some for his bday... Cause it's for his *ahem* bday... He also made a request to not have boring frogs like my Atelopus hoogmoedi.

As for plants, yes, I'm heavy on plants. I still have two ficus to plant, one pumila and one oak leaf. I've made the backdrop out of tree bark, with holes and climbing spots. Of course they have just been introduced so they are stressed and are climbing everywhere, but I'll be able to figure out their favorite spots soon enough and plant some more...
