    I would recommend a 20 gallon (40 Liters) "long" terrarium for a pair. You could actually keep 3 in that in my opinion. They don't climb a lot so they need lots of ground space, more than Dendrobates tinctorius. That's my experience and opinion.

    There are only 3 races of terribilis: yellow, mint, and orange. If someone is referring to a race as golden then you might want to run a photo by us to make sure it's not Phyllobates bicolor.

    I've seen the name Golden terribilis name mentioned at several locations. They looked like a darker yellow then what you have John.
    1.2.0 Dendrobates tinctorius 'Azureus'
    1.1.0 Dendrobates Lamasi 'Orange'
    1.1.0 Dendrobates Ventrimaculatus 'Understory Line'
    0.3.0 Dendrobates leucomelas

    As always your mileage may vary!
    I may or may not know what I'm talking about!

    That's a race of bicolor - show me a photo and I'll tell you with 95% certainty.
