Quick question. Are all six 'northern' variabilis adults? I'm counting at least four of six wall walking, which is not really considered a good thing.
Not trying to be a downer, but it kind of stood out to me...

Darts with parasites are analogous to mixed tanks, there are no known benefits to the frogs with either.

I actually don't work with variabilis now. The ones I've had were way too skittish for my liking.

Have you seen any aggression with the males? Mine were quiet aggressive towards each other, especially when calling.

I had what ended up being a 2.1 group, there was definitely a dominant male, and he definitely did not like his rival. If male # 2 started singing, #1 would seek him out. Lots of wrestling in that tank.

Good, at least as much as I want from them right now...
I only get a tad or so every few weeks... but I only have a couple of cups avail. I don't have much room unfortunatly & the southerns are more into popping them out.
