Dendrobates lamasi
Dendrobates lamasi also hail from Peru and are very popular in the hobby at the moment. The highland or standard morph is less common due to more limited distribution among breeders and it tends to be a less prolific frog. In contrast the 'panguana' and 'panguana green legged' variants are very active breeders. We have obtained 'panguana' and 'panguana green legged' lamasi from Phil Tan and have enjoyed great breeding success with them. The 'panguana' are set up as a 2.2 group (2 males and 2 females) in a 37 gallon high viv while the green legged form are a male-female couple in a 20 gallon high enclosure. The standard group ( an apparent 2.2) are set up in a 37 gallon high and have bred but not produced fertile eggs to date.
