    Yep, that's good then. It may just take him a bit to adjust to that food.

    I dont know what happened

    I dont know what happened

    Today i got up and fed my fish and frog. he was in the tank moving around as normal. well a few minutes ago i went to look for him. no real reason why i just wanted to see him. well he was dead. i dont know what happened to him. he was acting normal like he had alway been since i got him. nothing has changed in the tank, and now he is dead. i am so sad and now i have to sneak another frog in the tank just so my dd doesnt see him gone.

    i have been doing everything the same as when i first got it. i dont know what happened. he was moving around this morning acting normal, then i decided i wanted to look for the frog and he was dead. could he maybe got tangled in the plants? he was near the java moss.

    I doubt that happened. What are your water parameters ?

    Re: I dont know what happened

    the kit i got/had is now gone. my oldest decided she wanted to toss some stuff in the trash and well i am assuming it was one of the many things she tossed. (she now gets her little chair and climbs up on it to reach the fish items that are on the counter in the kitchen, i caught her with the fish food)

    Re: I dont know what happened

    Seems like you need to move things out of reach
    Without knowing your water parameters it's hard to say what happened

    Re: I dont know what happened

    i thought it was outta reach cause it is near the back wall on the kitchen counter. and apparently now she is climbing. so nothing is outta reach unless i cant reach it. but he had been doing good. and tomarrow is the day i usally do water changes. this sucks. i have to buy a new one now.

    This is what usually happens to the frogs that I have kept, was there a place in the tank for him to climb out of the water?
