These little bumblebees are settling in well and are full of character for such small frogs, they make a brilliant addition to a well-planted tropical setup.
As with all dart frogs, they're best enjoyed as a display species rather than handled. They thrive in a stable, well-established vivarium with plenty of cover, leaf litter and natural enrichment.
