The care below is dart frogs-level guidance from our species hub, sourced to Merck Veterinary Manual — Amphibians and RSPCA — Reptiles and amphibians.

Humidity and the skin rule
Maintain 80–100% humidity with a daily mist, and 70–80°F (21–27°C) days, slight drop at night. Never handle — their skin absorbs everything, and oils/salts harm them. Observe through glass. Quarantine new frogs and screen for chytrid; never mix wild-caught with captive.
Diet: tiny and varied
Feed flightless fruit flies (Drosophila) and pinhead crickets dusted with vitamin D3/calcium, plus springtails. Variety prevents deficiency. Adults eat every 1–2 days; juveniles daily. Use a supplement rotation (calcium one feed, multivitamin the next). Over-supplementation of vitamin A/D is itself harmful — follow a schedule.
