Are you working with darts ? If so, which ones?

Just a few Azureus. I have always wanted some thumbnails or oophaga. I have an empty 29gallon and i've been trying to figure out which species to put in it for a while. A group of thumbs would be nice. Any suggestions?

Standard Lamasi are my favorites.
Vanzos, Uakarii, Fantasticus, Benedicta and many Imis are all nice. I'd stay away from Amizonicus and other skittish thumbs.

Thanks. I'm in Chicago also. We have dart meets a few times a year...
Re: Darts, Some of My Collection
WOW! Those are amazing!
Robin inspired me! I don't need high megapixels.. so, with your permission, could I use a couple of those as a phone wallpaper?!
Re: Darts, Some of My Collection
Wow I didn't realize the variety of color in those little dart frogs! They're really interesting, how awesome! thanks for the pics!
Re: Darts, Some of My Collection
Thanks everybody.
I do not mind anyone using these as wallpapers and such. But I have actually put out a book and do not want any of my pics randomly floating around without my permission. It's my passion and art.
Use whatever you like for your personal usage only.
With 200+ species (true species, not hybrids, the dart hobby is way different than snakes...)these beauties are crazy diverse in size , color, and temperament.
I am more than happy to help anyone with questions. I'll need info reciprocity with my pied pair when they come in.

Re: Darts, Some of My Collection
WOW those are stunning. I would be interested in buying Darts but so many people get them and they die so quickly even if they take proper care of them. They seam way to hit or miss in my opinion to spend so much money on them. They are very pretty though.

Not a simple herp, but I have lost very few in 7+ years. And breed some very intersting stuff.
Lots of research up front can ensure captive breeding and long lives for some great species.
Darts are not for the impulse buy.
It pays off when you get it right...
