Tesoros Frogs wants to celebrate with you once again!
One of the most striking poison dart frogs in the world is being released for the first time ever into the hobby. This historic moment marks another milestone in our mission to replace illegal trafficking with a transparent and fully legal conservation-based model.
These exceptional frogs are available in extremely limited numbers, with the only two unsexed individuals featured here being offered via auction. The winning bidder will receive them with our Spring shipment arriving in April to the USA.
Don’t miss this rare opportunity to secure these remarkable animals as part of this historic release. Quantities are extremely limited, and demand is expected to be high.
Thank you for supporting legal origin, conservation, and the future of poison dart frogs.

Details
A striking red base coloration highlighted by black markings across the body, with most individuals displaying vivid white spotting on the arms and legs. Origin and history in the hobby: We are introducing this Colombian species to the international frog hobby afteralmost ten years of effort to secure the necessary permits for breeding and exporting it from our Tesoros de Colombia facilities.
Terrarium size and Social behavior: We recommend housing this species in pairs on terrariums of 30 gallons or larger, depending on the complexity of climbing options such as spikeless bromeliads, sturdy-leaved plants, or platforms. It is preferable to use a thick layer of Tesoros de Colombia leaf litter as the substrate for optimal habitat conditions. Temperature This species prefers a range between 65 and 81 °F Humidity A range between 70 - 90 % is recommended Nutrition Fruit flies (Drosophila), pinhead crickets and springtails with supplemented with minerals and vitamins. Age and longevity We offer only frogs 3+months old. They can live for more than 15 years in captivity but 8 years is considered an average.
Classified as Near Threatened in the wild due primarily to illegal overcollection for the pet trade and ongoing habitat loss, this species is now benefiting from a new conservation approach. By entering a legal biocommerce framework, a transparent and sustainable alternative is being established—one that effectively shuts down smuggling activities originating from Colombia. Threats: Overexploitation for the illegal pet trade, Habitat destruction, Chytrid fungus infection
