Hi, my name is Keith, aka Wally. I've been scoping this site out for a couple weeks and am looking forward to the day I have my own viv up and running.
I have been a reef keeper for about three years now and had no idea I could keep poison dart frogs. I always thought they were deadly to keep at home.
On to my first set of questions:
1. I bought a biocube 14g for $50 from Petco. It was a manager/display price. (reg. $250) If anyone here could advise me if I should use the all-in-one biocube or if I should sell it and buy an actual viv?
2. I plan on not getting frogs until the frog show in Atlanta in July. Once my viv is all setup, minus frogs, is there any regular maintenance besides watering, that I should be concerned about.
Side note: the biocube has lighting, fans, and a back chamber for filtration that can be removed. I'm not heart set on the BC, but I do like the way the look in general. It's a clean looking box.
Thanks in advance, and I look forward to learning from everyone.
