Heya,
My wife and I have a variety of pets. Eight corn snakes (2 of which will be breeding in a week or so), Four Firebelly toads, two big dogs, two cats, fish aquarium, plus we have breeder mice and rats to feed the snakes. Were going to a herp show this month and she's getting a red tail boa. If I get all my research done on darts I'll probably pick some up along with some Leo geckos. First off is there a good website that shows all the different species of darts with pictures? The best one I could find had 52 different varieties. It gave the scientific name the colour of morph, country of origin and I guess it would be the subspecies name (The dyeing PDF, Blue PDF, Yellow banded PDF) So if someone knows a website that explains the difference between the subspecies that would be awesome. Also from what I understand Darts don't need a paludarium, since my FBT are in one can someone give a rundown on what plants you use in your tanks. My wife went full water plants so that is all that I am kind of familar with. Thanks for any info,
Brendyn

abassett Wrote:you seem to be pretty well read on herps, they best thing at this point would be to head over to a local public library and find a well written book on the subject, ive never ran into a web site that had a real good database of dart frogs, but im sure someone has written a book on the subject.
as for plants, check around with the sponsors of this site and look at some of the plants they offer, or go to lowes and find some nice tropical plants that STAY SMALL! dont trust the person in the plant area either, look at a few plants, then come back and do your own research.
i found a ton of useful info just digging through what the the sponsors sell.
I've been to our library already and they didn't have a single book worth looking at. I'm not allowed to order any more books until the wife gets her red tail. (she's an expensive woman she can't have just a normal she wants I think it was called a coral albino I dunno she did the research on it) For plants you said tropical so does that mean that any tropical plant should be ok (talking to survive in viv) Thank you for the info

Here are a few websites you might find interesting, if not helpful, for pictures of the frogs

Thanks Cindy I found those websites very informative and of course the frog that I liked the most. A search showed it's not sold at least according to Dendro board (R. benedicta) Also I found that there is a frog fest in Tacoma in May so instead of getting some this month I'll wait until then. I bet my options would be alot more then since it's frogs for the most part.[/quote]
