Lock down the ultimate powerhouse for your bioactive setup with the Mint Terribilis Dart Frog (Phyllobates terribilis 'Mint'). This isn't just any dart frog—this is a member of the largest species on earth. The 'Mint' locale is absolutely breathtaking, trading patterns and stripes for a solid, unbroken coat of high-gloss, metallic pale-green to silver-mint coloration. Under quality vivarium lighting, this frog glows like an elite piece of custom hardware.
When it comes to court presence, the Mint Terribilis plays a completely fearless game. Because they are the apex giants of the dart frog world, they have absolutely zero fear of predators or their keepers. They don't hide—they dominate. They will spend all day right out in the open on the stadium floor, confidently looking for food and interacting with their environment. Even better, they are highly social team players that thrive in communities.
The Performance Stats:
- Unbroken Solid Color: A jaw-dropping solid metallic mint-green or silver color block that provides unmatched visibility.
- Maximum Fearlessness: Completely unfazed by movement, choosing to spend almost 100% of their active hours right in the front of the tank.
- The Ultimate Team Player: Unlike other giant species, Terribilis are highly peaceable and excel when housed in small groups.
Important Product Note: Because live animals feature entirely unique, organic patterning, your frog's exact color splitting and leg spots will vary slightly from the stock images shown. Adult tinctorius can become highly territorial; we recommend housing them as single pairs. In alignment with responsible husbandry, do not mix different locales or morphs of dart frogs within the same enclosure.
