How I’ve Had A Succesful Dart Frog Vivarium! 

You can do with any animal! But it’s especially popular with reptiles, amphibians and invertebrates. Look up bioactive vivarium build on RU-vid and you will find an abundance of videos taking you through each step☺️

I did end up covering some of it!

@@EmmaLynneSampson Thanks so much

The toxins come from their diet in the wild, a captive bred dart can’t become poisonous

@@mariyabaileys okay thank you. That's exactly what I have read before but just wanted to triple check xD

turn on subtitles and stop hating. if you don’t know how to spell just say that

Ask for a tarantula for a while and then go back to dart frogs, they’ll probably like the idea of dart frogs compared to tarantulas, however, I feel the need to point out, tarantulas are better

A “kids” pet? That sounds like horsedung to me. Owning a pet is a huge responsibility. It’s a living being not a toy. If they really said that, that’s a huge red flag lol Edit; specially the care requirements for these guys.. it’s a bit like fish. Everyone assumes it’s easy but it really isn’t and you need to learn the nitrogen cycle and understand it to successfully run a tank that’s sustainable.. The same with a terrarium or such enclosures. People should always take the effort to make it look natural. It’s the least we can do. Not just stick it into a glass tank and call it a day. Definitely not a child’s toy and it’s super educational. Hope your parents come around.

@@AdriCr4ft They won't. Ask my father about pets to him a dog or a cat are pets. Not a lizard or a frog. He'll say "you can't take a lizard or frog for a walk and what do they do? Just sit there."

@@sunshinecarnivores1919 sorry your parents are like that. Every person has its own interests and hobbies. Just because they have no interest in lizards doesn’t give them the right to say they can’t be pets or interesting. My parents where the same don’t worry. It’s not for nothing I don’t speak with them any more. Just toxic overall but I only realised when I hit my 20s how further it went.. It’s a shame they don’t realise that at the same time they are holding you back. These hobbies can sometimes lead to lifetime jobs. I say you hang on to your passions and when you have the possibilities to become independent, follow your hobbies and everything you wanted to achieve and do but couldn’t. Think positively. Right now you would probably be depending on them to buy you supplies. Lights, enclosure, foods.. I’m going to be honest here and guess that THEY WILL cheap it out. Meaning they will not be looking to buy the best for your pet and instead they will buy the most affordable. By your comment on them at least it’s the vibes I’m getting, If they do decide to give in and get you the dart frogs it will most likely be to just shut you up and will probably think it will die in a month🙄 I could say show them lizards doing cool stuff on RU-vid but what’s the point they seem pretty convinced their right. If you get a job and live by yourself you will be able to buy a proper enclosure with those fancy lights you would like and some 10 star grub for your frog bro. That’s what I did with my fish hobbie. Fish apparently can’t be pets either. On my family side they where ornaments. Research? Not worth it they are just fish lol Don’t quit You will eventually get there
