Hello!
Three weeks ago I got my first dart frog (yay!). It's eating fine and exploring the vivarium regularly, but I recently noticed a mucus-y looking spot on its back (pictures attached). Is this normal for these frogs or something I should be concerned about?
For reference, the frog is in an 18×11×22 terrarium. It's bioactive with some live plants. It has a misting system that runs every 6 hours for 12 seconds. Temperature sits around 72 degrees with humidity in the low 80s. I've been feeding fruit flies. The frog doesn't seem to be acting uncomfortable and doesn't hide away during the day.
Thank you for any help/advice!!
