Vicentei stay fairly small. Like most smaller dart frogs, Vicentei will prefer a habit with plenty of vertical space. Vicentei are obligate breeders/feeders. Meaning that the offspring require care from its parents until it has left the water and begins eating live prey. The Female will deposit infertile eggs for the tadpole to eat until it leaves the water.
