Ok, I understand after reading on this site for two hours that mixing frogs is not a good thing. So I want just one species, but I have a question about that. When you keep one species of frog is in a group of three or four, what happens if they breed? I mean I hear people talking about keeping goups all the time, but I doubt that all these people are raising hundreds of tads. What do you experienced people do?

There are froggers out there raising hundreds of tads. If this is not your cup of tea you can just pull any eggs found and throw them away.

There are also a number of morphs that do not like to be kept in groups of three or four.

You can remove the eggs and learn how to raise tads if you want more frogs of that specie, and can devote the time to it. The the thumbnails that are able to raise and feed their own tads in bromeliad axils of water, such as immitators, pumilios, and other egg feeders, you can just sit back and watch the show, just making sure the brome axils have a constant source of fresh spring water. Sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't, but it's sure fun watching them do it.
