Question Advice with D. Azureus

Hi! This is my first post, so I should tell a little about myself. I've had a Dendrobates Azureus for a couple of months now. This is my first time taking care of a dart frog before, but I have raised plain frogs from tadpoles I would catch whenever we went to a lake or something. I got it from a Repticon show last November. Repticon is rolling around again next month, and I have a couple of questions I would like answered before I go.
#1. I have a ten gallon vivarium. Would I be able to put another frog in there? My Azureus looks a little forlorn.
#2. If I have enough room for another frog. What kind should it be? Another Azureus or a different kind of dart frog?
#3. What sex is my frog?(Sorry for the bad picture.) I believe it to be a female. I have thought of a really cool name but it's gender dependent.
Thank you for your time!

1. it is possible to add ONE more, but its pretty cramped for 2 frogs. a 15 0r 20 gallon would be much better. also darts dont need companionship. they do just fine by themselves. i say take the money you would have spent on the second frog and get a bigger tank with proper drainage, etc.

2. ONLY another azureus!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
(look at the post it note to the left)

3.your frog is WAY too young to guess sex. by 18 months it should have some definite cues that could better identify a sex.
