If your enclosure is wider than tall for sure get the big species. I think those are the easiest. My first were actually D. pumilo (O. pumilo) and did well for me for a long time because I had them in tall tanks. But eventually they died to inadequate nutrition (vitamins and such). Not because I didn't know but because I was delinquent with their care. I have not tried any other darts since, but I did study up on them and their care for about 3 years before I tired them (thanks to Dendroboard). I learned a lot.
Question, last time I checked (about 3 years ago) hybrids in dart frog world was a giant NO-NO! Are their hybrids available now?
