In captivity they become almost, steril to some extent, they still have some toxins, but it is not dangerous to humans, most of the toxicity comes from their diet in the wild, once in captivity they no longer have the same diet, and theylose most of their toxins.

Dart frogs are a rewarding species, and its a lot of fun setting up the enclosure.

You should have potting soil instead of gravel. Gravel could be ingested, possibly killing the frog.

Just plain potting soil...what else should i put in his enclosure, and what lighting do i need, if any? I dont have any right now, but he gets light from the room.
