Is there such a species of Tinc, as a dwarf dyeing poison frog?

Dwarf Colbalt?
I want to get some of these at some point very nice looking frogs. I'm not sure if this is what you were talking about or not.
Here is a link from quality captives to a picture:

Yes, in the United States they are often called Dwarf French Guiana tincs or Dwarf Cobalt tincs. Nomant is what they are called in Europe. They stay small, my adults are only a little over 1 inch in length. Before the Surinam Cobalts were imported these were the most common form of tinctorius availible. I think pallid tincs also stay pretty small but I've never seen adults in real life before so I can't say for sure. Talk to you later,

Yes, there are. Kyle put a link up from our site. The Dwarf Tincs are smaller than a normal Cobalt. They are the same size fully grown as a luec.
They are a lot of fun!

she is a bit larger than the males. When people see our breeding group, they think the other frogs are sub-adults, but are actually fully grown.

There are also other dwarf tinc morphs besides the dwarf cobalts. Lorenzo's are small, Oyapok's are small, and I believe that the Pallid's are small as well (they look just like the Oyapok's from what I have seen . . . but that's only pictures).
