Josh's Frogs recommends rearing poison dart frog tadpoles individually in 16 oz. tadpole cups, due to their cannibalistic nature. The tadpole cup should initially be filled with at least 10 oz. of tadpole tea. Evaporated water should be replaced with distilled or reverse osmosis water, or with more tadpole tea.

Name: Phyllobates terribilis 'Orange'. Not a true subspecies, Orange terribilis are a unique population/morph/locale of P. terribilis. Commonly called the terrible dart frog due to it being the most toxic vertebrate on the planet. An adult wild Phyllobates terribilis is reportably capable of killing 10-15 adult humans (fortunately, like all dart frogs, captive bred animals are completely non-toxic and harmless). Terribilis are also known as the Golden Poison Dart Frog. In the American frog hobby, P. terribilis are ofen called terribilis or simply terribs.
