  • What’s up guys? Today I am joined by a good friend of mine Chase Jennings, owner of Houston Frogs and we’re going to be building an 18x18x24 Frog & Co. enclosure for Dendrobates leucomelas 'Fine Spot' Poison Dart Frogs. In this video we’ll cover some basics on how to care for dart frogs as well as appropriate wood and plants to use in their set ups. This build was a lot of fun! Chase brought in beautiful plants for us to use in this build, as well as some surprise 3D printed items that you’ll have to watch to see. I hope you guys enjoy this build, and as always let us know what you think in the comments or any questions you might have.

    Hey guys, I realized that LEUCOMELA was incorrectly spelled on the front image tag. Don't know how that happened but I changed it and should be good to go now. Thank you for those that brought it to my attention.

    I was contemplating raising dart frogs in the new terrarium in my classroom, but I had no idea how to accomplish a healthy bioactive vivarium. Now that the 2 of you spoke nerdy to me, I am convinced this shall be my next pet project! Loved all the biology vocab y'all taught to your viewers too! 💯 A+

  • @reageerbuisje5391
    @reageerbuisje5391 2 роки тому +2

    Great tank! Although IMO you should try and cover the whole substrate in a nice thick layer of leaf litter, and no ground covering plants. Everyone has different ideas though!

    • @TheBioDudeJoshHalter
      @TheBioDudeJoshHalter  2 роки тому +1

      Great idea. I do agree with you. I could have added more leaves on the base and not just mixed in.

  • @marc6016
    @marc6016 2 роки тому +3

    Needs way more leaf litter.

    • @TheBioDudeJoshHalter
      @TheBioDudeJoshHalter  2 роки тому +1

      I should have more on the top, TBH! I mixed a bunch into the soil etc but you are right, the darts love a hearty layer on the top to create feeding opportunities and retreats.

  • @mellewedin8221
    @mellewedin8221 2 роки тому

    The plants alone will also filter the water in the tank as well. I have been learning a lot about vivariums terrariums and such. Lol I think though I am going to go with a pack man frog. They seem less complicated to care for. I am not lazy, just never owned a land dwelling frog. I own and breed fully aquatic frogs. African Dwarf Frogs.

    Great video guys! I've watched this a few times. One question I have is how many 6 quart bags of Hydrogrow v2 do I need for the 18x18x24 Frogs & Co tank? You had it already in the black bucket and didn't mention it. Thanks!

      Hey there, due to the dwarfs (also called claw toed frogs) being high carriers of the chytrid fungus, we avoid them as much as possible to minimize risk. it would be a good blog post idea!!! **adds claw toed frogs to blog list** lol - Support

    is there anyway to use this type of terranium to capture fruit flys that may be in the house for the frogs to eat?

    • @TheBioDudeJoshHalter
      @TheBioDudeJoshHalter  2 роки тому +1

      IF ONLY! what a good idea it would be to get rid of them lol ! there would be parasitic issues to worry about from the wild flies as a food source. There seems to be a few reasons as to why captive breeding works best with flightless fruit flies as a food source for the frogs.

      Email our customer care team and they can do their best to see if they can assist, but we always recommend having a relationship with a veterinarian that way when you have questions you have someone with an established relationship with your animal that can help you out. Either way, feel free to email us and we will do our best to help you out! CustomerCare@theBioDude.com

    • @TheBioDudeJoshHalter
      @TheBioDudeJoshHalter  2 роки тому +1

      They need good airflow. They dry up = not enough moisture. They turn black and rot = not enough airflow/too much moisture. Its all in the balance : )
