I have both of the new Exo Terra Frogs & co Dart Frog Terrariums... I haven't set up the 18x18x18 just yet I live in NY so it's to cold right now... I was able to set up the 18x18x24... Absolutely love it so far... Can't wait to get the other one done... Awesome video... Love your channel

leave it to a Fellow Canadian to get another guy wanting frogs... well more toads then frogs but the same none the less . Thank you for making these awesome vids . I owe ya a Timmies bro
Your videos are getting better and better. :)
Keep it up and watch out for youtube burn-out.
Thanks so much! I do feel like I'm learning and improving with every video so I'm glad you think so too! And I really appreciate the concern but don't worry too much, I feel like I've got a good balance going right now :)
Tank looks great! Hope the new design works out well - it looked great in your unboxing video. I'll be curious to see how the substrate ends up working out.
Thanks! So far so good with the substrate but the real question is what it looks like a year or so from now...
@@NorthernFrogger How's the substrate holding up? And are you still happy with the tank?
Awesome build. Thank you for sharing. How cool to have them last eggs too!!!
I'm TOTALLY new to dart frogs and honestly scared to death of the spray foam, but figure it really is the nicer look.
I notice you don't silicone the edges of the foam to the glass. Is that just a personal preference?
Thanks!! Any suggestions are welcome!!!
Hi again Josh, just enjoyed this video again, thank you. Could you please tell me which aquatic mosses are suitable, I know you have mentioned Christmas Tree moss, but any others please?? Thanks again. From the UK
Thanks for the video. Coulp please let me know what kind of paint did you use to color the foam?
Subscribed! was looking for any video on the terrasky and found this :) hyped to get mine in next week for my RETF vivarium. Have you tried the moonlight setting at all curious as to how well it actually works?
Thanks for the sub! Yeah I've played around with it and it's pretty cool, I haven't really used it much on the dart frog tank since I just have it running on a timer in daylight mode, but it would definitely be a nice feature to have for nocturnal species!
Great set up, I am thinking about using the same method of substrate and very interested in how its working for you? Great videos i have learnt a lot from your channel. Thanks.
Still working great!
hi, can you give us a review of the stratum?
Would love to see a follow up on the tank and substrate. Is it working well (not flooding) without a drainage layer or would you recommend one?
Yes its still doing well. I do plan to do an update video on this tank soon
Did you put something over the drain? Or it will just be filled with that small substrate you put in.
I know most retailers haven't got this tank yet but any idea when it'll be on the market? Can you ask Exo Terra? Great looking build man, looks really cool.
Thanks, the frogs seem to be loving it so far too! The tanks should be available very soon. I know at the time the video was released many retailers had already placed their orders, so I would expect they should at least be in transit by now...
Did the exact same thing with the substrate except i used fluval stratum
Nice! I think it's basically the exact same stuff... How's it working out so far?
@@NorthernFrogger its actually working out pretty well, i have mostly epiphtes in the tank but the ones that are growing in the stratum are emersed aquating plants, mostly HC but some anubias and java fern.
Is the mesh small enough to stop melonagasters Getting through ? My experience with exo terra is even Hydei can get through also the slots for all the misting system and other stuff seam they might let flies to get out ? That's why we use euro style Viv's here in the UK ,it would be good if they're escape proof cos they look great
They probably aren't totally escape proof, it looks like there are a couple spots that melanogasters may be able to escape... I haven't noticed any getting out yet, but I only the released the frogs in there the day before the video release so I haven't had a ton of time to evaluate that yet...
Last thumbnail: "YOU'LL TAKE ME ALIVE HUMAN!!!"
Hey, just wondering where you bought the thumbnail frogs? I’ve been looking everywhere lol
These ones I got from Mostly Just Geckos. I have some R. vanzolinii and R. imitator 'chazuta' ready right now if you're in Canada
Great build Josh..
And I have watched the unboxing video on this featured
exo terra frog enclosure.. Looks cool.
I had a Leuc question I sent you on Messenger..
As well as a video of a build I'm currently completing..
Any feedback will be would be great..
Thank you! Sorry I missed your message... Where did you send it?
In your honest opinion. What enclosure do you like better the frog & Co are the regular exo terra enclosure.
Seem they both have their pro and cons
hey, where did you found your leaves and your mangrove wood
Keep us updated about your substrate
Will do!
Great vid ! Any tips for rantiomeya breeding?
Heavy feeding and misting, give them lots of different options for egg laying and tadpole raising sites, and try not to disturb them too much.
Great video, how did the eggs get on, hopefully allswell?
Thanks! If I remember right these eggs didn't make it. These frogs have probably been my least successful overall in terms of egg viability rates.
What type of Broms do you prefer and what's maintenance like for bromiliads?
To be honest I don't really even know what types of broms I have lol. And I can't say I really maintain them at all... I just give them good lighting and let them go 🤷♂️
Where can I get the terrarium?
It's just starting to roll out, but they will start to become available in the next few days!
Thanks man, your vivarium looks brilliant 👍
How the hell did you get them to lay eggs in a deli container during transport?!!!! That was so strange and lucky!! Nice!!!
🤷♂️
Hi again Josh, I did ask you on another video about which aquatic mosses you use please? I guess you you didn't see my question. I really like your videos as you do not constantly promote suppliers.
Hi! I'm not reawlly sure about the mosses... I think they were the Tropica 1-2-Grow moss cups, a couple of the easy rated varieties, but I can't remember the names.
Any update on the tank, I'm considering doing just the substratum but haven't seen many reviews of it. Thanks
So far it's doing well! It's been almost a year since that video so I'm planning a 1 year update video for that tank soon :)
I've been contemplating trying substratum in my new dart frog viv. How's this working out for you?
So far, so good!
Any link to this tank?
Have you had any issues with fly's escaping from the new exo terra frog tanks?
They are not totally fly-proof, but it hasn't been a big issue
Can different species of dart frogs cohabitate in the same enclosure
I think it's possible if done properly, but there are lots of issues with it like the risk of hybridization and stress from territorial aggression. In most cases it's probably more trouble than it's worth and I recommend against it.
I just purchased a dendrobates auratus from reptile expo and he’s been in the same spot not even moving doesn’t really eat is there something wrong with him? I heard that transporting dart frogs can stress them also and how long does it take for them to get use to their new enclosure??
It can take a little while to adjust to a new home, and some auratus can be quite shy at the best of times... Normally I would say don't worry too much but if he's not eating that's a bit concerning... Are you sure he's not eating? Sometimes shy frogs will be hesitant to eat if they know they're being watched... Does he look skinny?
@@NorthernFrogger when I first got the lil guy, when I 1st placed him in its new enclosure he was eating my springtails, after awhile I gave him fruitflies he wasn't interested, and on the 2nd day he just completely stopped eating, no springtail or fuitfly and yes he did lost a bit weight, all the dart frogs that was at the show was all skinny, so I grabbed the most average weight sized one and I was hoping to see joshs frogs but ig they didn't come so I was stuck wit the other vendors
How's the substrate holding up.
Still doing great!
Hello where can I find that LED lamp, you have the Amazon link. Thanks I am writing to you from Italy.
Hmm, if you can't find it on amazon it might not have made it to your market yet, but you could try around to local pet stores that carry Exo Terra products
Oh, and forgot to ask what you did with the eggs?
I have a little high humidity incubator bin I put them until they hatch
where can I pick one of these up?
They should be starting to show up in pet stores soon, if they are not already...
i didn’t know Jake Gyllenhaal was into dart frogs!
😅
How do you keep fruit flies alive during the winter? My cultures die.
Hmmm... I guess make sure they don't get too cold, and make sure they don't dry out... I get very dry winters so I will typically mix my fly media a little runnier in the winter to prevent drying out.
I really want to do one of these dart frog setups but the kits are like 500$! 🤦🏻♂️
Got a little sad when the frog kept wanting to jump out of the new enclosure 🥴
beefy boi 15:45
Love your videos. One thing, if you could stop using the word ummm every other word it would be easier to listen to. I just turn the volume off and it works for me.
Thanks
lol after so many years they decide to change design
How many dendrobates do you put in the 18x18x24 exoterra ?
Depends on the species, for tinctorius usually I'll just stick to pairs, but for auratus or leucs I might do 3-4
