Nicaraguan (Captive bred)
Dendrobates Auratus ‘Nicaraguan’ (Captive bred)
Often referred to as black and green dart frogs.
We recommend a minimum of a 20 gallon vivarium for 1 to 3 Dendrobates auratus 'Nicaraguan' frogs.
Substrate recommendation for a bioactive layer: false bottom, substrate barrier, sphagnum moss and leaf litter are great and support microfauna populations, which help break down waste and mold within the tank.
Temperature range of 70° to 76° F. Temperatures over 85° can be fatal.
Auratus prefer a humidity range of 70–90%. Low humidity levels can quickly be fatal.
Feeding: Auratus poison dart frogs prefer smaller foods. All of the auratus dart frogs will readily eat Drosophila melanogaster fruit flies, Drosophila hydei fruit flies and enjoy springtails and isopods. All feeder insects should be dusted with a vitamin/mineral supplement.
