hey guys, new man here! Ive been researching what frog to get like crazy and naturally i've ended up here with the crazy colours, so so cool

!

So i guess i just have a few questions for you folks. Like whats the best beginner dart, or are they ok for noobs at all? And is it ok to mix types of dart within one viv?

And any other tips for a 'starter dart frog bloke' welcome!

Cheers folks!

oh oh ya and am i right to say that with a natural viv (small stones, covered with moss and pond area etc) you dont have to change the substrate? just water it to wash the moss and drain then replace the water?

With dart frogs you dont need to change the substrate. their Feces break down in the soil. with any Other frogs I know of you do. The Ammonia levels in other frogs feces is too high to break down and will build up.
