How to Set Up a Complete Mantella Vivarium

Mantellas are often called the poison dart frogs of Africa. Native to Madagascar, mantellas share the bright colors and poisonous skin secretions of dart frogs. Like poison dart frogs, mantellas lose most of (if not all) their toxicity when bred in captivity. Somewhat more difficult to breed than dart frogs, Josh's Frogs is thrilled to be able to offer captively bred mantellas, produced by us for you!
This kit is hand-curated by our mantella experts and includes everything you need to set up a habitat that will keep your mantellas healthy and thriving!

The Mantella Complete Vivarium Kit is perfect for a group of 4-6 mantella. This kit is great for housing and displaying mantellas, but it will make egg/tadpole collection nearly impossible. For those interested in breeding mantellas, we strongly recommend our Mantella Complete Breeding Kit.
