Default tank contamination?
I never had poison dart frogs before, and I was wondering if their venom would cause any tank contamination?

Thanks.

nope... they're "poison" is mainly acquired from their diet in the wild... which they do not get in captivity.

Beck is correct, but I always recommend a good bleaching for any tank that will be reused for any animal. Its just good animal husbandry.
