Koe-koe Poison Dart Frog (Amazon Spheres)

Oophaga solanensis | At the Amazon Spheres buildings in Downtown Seattle in one of their South American vivariums. The Amazon Sphere's are the Downtown Seattle headquarters for the company, but it's essentially a giant greenhouse that is open on select days for free to the public
I've seen this one on my last 2 visits to the Spheres, I believe there are at least 2 or 3 in here. I've been looking for an ID for a while and makes sense why I couldn't find one since I thought it was a Dendrobates species. Apparnently this species was just described in 2018 and already listed as vulnerable by the IUCN. Hopefully they're breeding in this tank, it's such a jaw dropping species.
