    Poison Dart Frog enclosures.

    Quick question, do these frogs need any kind of heat? I think they do well in the 70's-80's, but that may be species dependant. Do these frogs need water to swim in, or can they be kept on sphagnum moss with a shallow water bowl? I want to put them in with my mourning gecko terrarium as they...

    "small tailed" smooth knobbie questions?

    I have always been interested in these (laevissimus, deleani, stellatus, vertebralis). I realize the latter is unavailable, and hear from friends that the deleani and especially the laevissimus are rather difficult to care for. How is the stellatus in this respect? I'm sure they aren't an...
