I've been tossing around the idea of getting a terrarium and some poison dart frogs, but I am a bit worried about two different things:

1. I am managing to (unintentionally) kill a peace lily plant which, from what I've heard, is somewhat of a hearty plant. So, I'm concerned about my ability to properly care for something in animalia, nevertheless something which I've heard has a tendency to keel over dead if you look at it too crossly. Plus, terrariums have plants too, and... well. Not going well for me so far.
2. I have a somewhat erratic schedule, and the room that they would live in is the one I use as my office. So the lights will be on, sometimes quite late, and with a highly varying schedule.

Should I abandon ship now, or should I continue researching?

Hey, does anyone here have personal experience with keeping jumping spiders as pets? I found this video on Youtube and it is quite interesting:

With how fast that thing jumps, and how it keeps pivoting to watch the person's face, I spent that entire video terrified it was going to suddenly just go for the eyes. Then when it ended without carnage, I was confused until I realized it wasn't liveleak, but youtube.
