About This Product

* Specific products may be swapped out based on availability. Pictures are used as examples. *

The Complete Mantella Breeding Kit is perfect for a group of 4-6 mantellas. This is a simple setup based on our own breeding enclosures, which make it easy to monitor the mantellas and collect eggs/tadpoles.

 

This habitat kit includes:
  • Glass enclosure with proper light fixture and bulbs
  • Simple substrate to facilitate breeding and egg collection
  • Accessories and decor to make your life easier when keeping mantellas

 

Setting up this tank is simple.
 
  1. Rinse out the included 18x18x18 glass tank with clean water, then dry.
  2. Cut 2" off of one side of the included frog foam, then place it in the tank, so there is a 2" gap between the front of the tank and the frog foam. This will act as a pond and water source for your mantellas, helping to maintain humidity and providing them a place to drop off tadpoles.
  3. Expand the sphagnum moss in dechlorinated water, then spread out a 1-2" layer on top of the frog foam.
  4. Place the cork pieces on the sphagnum. This will provide cover for the mantellas. Oftentimes, you'll find egg clutches laid under the cork in the sphagnum.
  5. Place the LED bulbs into the compact top, then place that on top of the enclosure. Run the lights for 12 hours a day.
  6. Monitor the humidity closely. Maintain a humidity level of 60% or higher. The sphagnum moss will have to be kept damp, and there should always be water visible in the 'pond' along the front of the enclosure. Mist frequently.
