Get what appeals to you. However, leucs are not very territorial and will generally get along no matter what the sex, as well as in groups, provided they have enough space, while tinctorius are territorial and females may fight. These are best kept in mated pairs. You will probably be getting fairly young frogs that haven't been sexed yet. But if they are adults, the males have somewhat larger, more fluted appearing front toe pads--about twice the size of the hind toe pads, while females have toe pads that are not much larger than the hind ones. Males of either species tend to be more slender, a bit smaller, while females are more round in the belly.

Dendrobates: auratus blue, auratus Ancon Hill, tinctorius azureus, leucomelas. Phyllobates: vittatus, terribilis, lugubris. Epipedobates: anthonyi tricolor pasaje. Ranitomeya fantastica, imitator, reticulata. Adelphobates castaneoticus, galactonotus. Oophagia pumilio Bastimentos. (updated systematic nomenclature)
leucs! both are very hardy and bold, but tincs are pretty territorial and unless you have a huge tank they shouldn't be put in groups. leucs do great in groups. and they also seem to climb a bit more and utilise more of the tank. i have two females in a 10 hex (tall tank) and i rarely see them on the groud.
