    Default Dendrobates imitator 'Tarapoto'

    Just wanted to show off one of my new pair of Dendrobates imitator 'Tarapoto'. I just received them today from our very own John!
    The males was calling within the hour of being placed in the vivarium. They seem very bold for just arriving at their new home! My phone camera does not do justice to how it looks.

    I almost got a proven pair of these just recently, but I needed the $200+ for other more useful things. Very nice tarapotos non the less!

    No I just got the one pair. The male was calling right away and the female was out front on the wood eating springtails for that shot. I had also just dumped in some flies to see if they would eat them. She went right after them.

    Here is the overall shot of the tank.

    This tank is about 2 months old and has been growing in nicely.

    Thanks Kevin,

    It's my favorite 10 vertical. Too bad the bromeliads in the back is loosing its red color. Guess there is not enough light as I just have two standard florescent strip lights. I plan to replace them with T5's or LED'S in the future.
