Spare tank...

[samuel]

Hey, i have a spare tank 30" by 15" by 15" and am trying to decide what to do with it... I am on a student budget and would really like to set up some sort of dendrobate habitat and keep a few. Any suggestions of what i need?

Go for it! Read and learn as much as you can first though. Try:

thanks..i am thinking the tank may be better used for another salamander species..but may just have to buy a new tank and some darts!

would Dendrobates leucomelas do alright at normal room temperatures (normal room temps in glasgow!) without extra heat mats? and would a pair be ok in an exo terra viv?

Did you read the links?

 

[samuel]

yes, and several similar sites-i have been researching them for a while, but there is a lot of contradictory info on the web-just want to have things clarified!

Define normal room temperatures! Summer or winter? Day or night? Is the same temperature in the rainforest 24/7? How high off the ground?
Dartfrogs are pretty flexible, within limits.
