Care Overview:
The Golden Mantella frog for sale is a rewarding pet for an intermediate to advanced keeper. They thrive in a carefully maintained environment.
- Habitat: A vertically-oriented terrarium (e.g., 18″x18″x18″) with a secure lid is ideal. They require a tropical, high-humidity (80-100%) environment with plenty of live plants, leaf litter, and hiding spots.
- Diet: They are insectivores. Their diet consists of appropriately sized gut-loaded insects like fruit flies, springtails, and pinhead crickets, dusted with essential vitamin and calcium supplements.
- Temperament: They are a social species and can be kept in small groups, but are not for handling as their skin absorbs oils and chemicals from human hands.
