Dendrobates tinctorius “Nominat” is a yellow and black dyeing poison frog from Suriname and one of the smaller tinctorius morphs. Our animals are captive-bred. Like all tinctorius it is active during the day, and it is a good species for keepers starting out with dart frogs.

Care
Keep a pair in a terrarium of at least 45 × 45 × 45 cm at 22–27 °C by day and 20–22 °C at night, with 80–100 % humidity. Feed flightless fruit flies as the staple, with springtails and isopods for variety, and dust every feeding with a calcium and vitamin supplement. Females can be aggressive towards each other, so never keep more females than males together. More in our wiki article on Dendrobates tinctorius care and breeding.
