OK. I am new to this, so have some patience with me. I am still investigating getting into this exciting hobby and I have a few questions I want to get answered before I get started. I am wondering about the size of the different species. I see referenced to "F1" and some decimals to describe the different darts. Can anyone tell me how to decipher what these mean? And I am wanting to find out the approximate sizes of the the different species. Tinc, leucs, pumilios, ect. I am really leaning toward the Tincs (probably the Brazilian morph) or The Phantasmal Poison Frog (Salvias Morph). I have a 110 gallon salt water aquarium that I am designing and want to design the environment to the type of darts that I am going to get. If anyone could give me some advice or direct me to some resources to find some answers i would greatly appreciate it
This a great little book to help you get started.

F1 is a first generation offspring from farm raised or wild caught parents.
1.1.1.= 1male.1female.1unsexed froglet.
Just read through the archives that are filed with lots of great info already.
Take you time set up your tank let it mature.
I thought it was Female.Male.Unknown?? If so i have 3 Boys.. not girls. hahaha
I am building a vivarium with running water and live plants in a 55 gallon tank. I dont want to over crowd the habitat but would like to add a few different types of amphibians if I can. My question is, can I have dart frogs with whites tree frogs or green tree frogs? What about some geckos or salamanders? Also, we have a smaller 2 1/2 gallon tank inside so are there certain types of fish I should stick with or are fancy guppies ok? Im trying to do as much research as possible before I add anything alive to my tank so any advice is appreciated!
It can be done. BUT.. Allot to consider.. Like Different Mini environments.

Real good explanation on mixing with others. Years ago.. just starting with Amphibians. I had a Small Pacman and a Small Dumpy. It was a Twenty high and i thought they would be ok. And I guess looking for food the dumpy came down.. I came home and saw the dumpy hanging out of the pacmans mouth. I was able to coax the pacman to open and the dumpy was ok. Me and wife split then getting back into frogs. I got another dumpy, whom now is over two years old. Huge. I want to get a tank mate. but will only get another dumpy just as big. I have a 110 Gallon on its end. but imagine putting a dart with a full grown dumpy. Dumpy might think its a Large Snack. Not only stress and so forth. I recommend at least with the frogs, one or the other. Knowing is half the battle.. YO JOE! -Buddha
Good luck with that. Sounds like it will be pretty tricky...
My White's tree frogs ate three adult Bahamian anoles that I put in the viv overnight after breaking the front glass on the anole viv.
My big female will try to tackle full size roaches. I can't imagine much of anything being safe in a viv with White's, even smaller specimens of the same species.
