 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. First time purchase from Frogfather UK.

Very happy with the items, delivery and communication.

When my terrarium is ready, will be getting my frogs from Frogfather UK.

Edit**

In addition to the points mentioned initially, after further communication and purchases, I would also like to say thank you to Tony for his experience and guidance, helping out a novice like myself. Much appreciated.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Amazing products, but they are definitely having shipping issues unfortunately! Not completely their fault however it took 2 weeks to receive my parcel due to it being sent as a large letter in too big of a box! Thank you regardless, all the springtails are shockingly still doing well and the food I have heard amazing things about.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Although I have never visited the store (it's a bit far away from me) their website is fantastic especially for an invert keeper like me who wants to keep up to date with the latest shows and where they are but isn't on social media. It's the little things that really matter.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Tony is amazing. I collected a ready to go vivarium and three Powder Blue Dart Frogs and I left with everything I needed to get going. I had been messaging Tony for a few months before I got my frogs so that I had all the info I needed. I also did his course which is invaluable. Would go to the Frog Father for everything.
Exceptional service.

Tested on Our Frogs. Made for Yours – The Frogfather Nutrition Series

Introducing the Frogfather Microfauna Nutrition Series – a complete, high-performance range of supplements designed to support every part of your bioactive vivarium. This five-product system provides premium springtail food, balanced isopod nutrition and reliable fruit fly culture media, all made here in the UK with clean, human-grade ingredients.

Each formula targets a specific role inside a thriving vivarium: rapid springtail reproduction, stronger and more active dwarf white isopods, stable fruit fly cultures for dart frogs, and essential vitamins and minerals for amphibians. These blends are ideal for keepers who want consistent growth, healthier microfauna populations and long-term stability in tropical enclosures.

Unlike generic powders, our microfauna supplements contain no fillers, no cheap additives and no unnecessary bulk. Every product has been tested across real bioactive setups – dart frog tanks, isopod colonies, froglet grow-outs and tropical plant terrariums – to ensure reliable results.

If you’re looking for the best springtail food, high-quality isopod diet options or a complete microfauna nutrition system for your bioactive vivarium, this series delivers professional-grade performance with none of the nonsense.
