"As captives, mantellas are most comfortable at a temperature range of 68F to 76F (19C-24C); remember that many of these are montane species. Mantellas become obviously discomfited when temperatures near 80F (27C), and lethargic when temperatures drop much below 65F (18C)."

Mr. Bartlett is a very popular author among reptile and amphibian keepers, he has written dozens of excellent books on the care of many, many species.
