Golfodulcean poison frogs are communal animals, and have recently become available in the pet trade. [1] [5] They can be kept in a vivarium measuring about 100x60x60 cm, to grant the frogs both space to move around on the ground and space to climb. A clean, mossy substrate should be provided and, optionally, a carpet of leaves.
