I'm going to get rid of the pool because it is pine and pine is a no no in frog tanks.

Very nice, looking forward to seeing those cobalts in it. I've always wanted to set up a dart frog tank, I'll have to just enjoy yours for now.

Looks great, but why is pine a no no in a frog tank out of curiosity.

Pine has poison in its wood. That's why no other plants live near pine trees in the wild.

Nice java moss carpet, that got me inspired to start one in my FBT Paludarium. When are the frogs going to go in there?

Coral Keeper

10-25-2008, 4:11 PM

Thanks! I'm not sure. The person that is going to give them to me hasn't contacted me yet. I think they are still growing out. I'm not in a hurry.http://www.plantedtank.net/forums/images/smilie/icon_smile.gif

do you have to spray the anubias often or can they live in a dry climate as long as the roots are wet? also is the rhizome buried?

Coral Keeper

11-03-2008, 11:44 AM

Thanks for the compliments everyone!! I mist my tank every other day. I buried some of the rhizome. The roots reach all the way to the bottom of the tank where there is a lot of water.

Nice update, it helps to see pictures of a dart frog vivarium when I'm starting one up. What kind of bromeliad is that and where did you get it?
