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.
