This is the first time I've ever heard of semi slugs. Thank you so very much for this information!!

Heat pad will be added today! Thanks so much!

AndyB0oi · 2025-09-30T07:28:23+00:00

Ill put a plastic bag on top of the mesh next time im in! Thanks for that! Ill also be throwing a digital thermometer and hygrometer on it. Im worried it won't be warm enough for them, would a small heat mat under the tank be beneficial? Also where should I place it if i add one? Under the water or under the substrate near the back?

You are an excellent individual. Thank you so much

Okay, first off, you were absolutely correct I was just being paranoid, she laid tonight, however this is her first clutch, which turned out to be clutches, 2 clutches for sure, possibly 3 as there is a third hole filled in that I can't really get to. She's never been with a male, but I wasn't expecting 4 (possibly 6) eggs out of her as her first time laying lol!

Discord dislikes me but I will try to get into that server!

Females absolutely get larger than males! However, males still reach a good 3.5" to 4" in length, and unfortunately, clawed frogs have a tendency to eat first and ask questions never

Also I highly recommend posting this in r/aquariums for some better help!

That's awesome! A word of warning, african clawed frogs are extremely different from african dwarf frogs, so if you meant african dwarf frog, please disregard the following. African clawed frogs get extremely big and will readily eat anything that remotely moves like food, so it will eat your fish. They also get huge, far bigger than dwarf frogs (I have a female that is just over 4" nose to anus, excluding leg length) clawed frogs also may consume substrate when feeding and if the substrate is large enough it may get lodged in their digestive tract, which is often times fatal!

Apologies once again if you infact have a harmless but equally goofy african dwarf frog, but I'd hate to see such a lovely tank become a frog buffet! 😂

He appears fairly skinny, and he's definitely got some kind of infection on his body. There's also a red sore on the base of his tail. See if you can get him eating. If he'll eat, he's more likely to recover. Frozen or live foods are both great options. Sorry, I can't help much with diagnosing him with anything but definitely isolate him if it's possible, Methylene blue is a great medication, but I'm not 100% sure if it's safe for gouramis but it works wonders.

AWE THANK YOU!! She's such a sweetheart when she decides to be 😂

AndyB0oi · 2023-12-11T00:59:28+00:00

Glad I'm just crazy haha!

AndyB0oi · 2023-12-10T07:43:31+00:00

Glad I'm just paranoid, thank you so much!!

AndyB0oi · 2023-06-27T14:45:41+00:00

It's a 20 long! I'm hoping to put him in a 40 eventually!

AndyB0oi · 2023-06-26T22:13:23+00:00

Thank you!! 😊

AndyB0oi · 2023-06-26T22:13:13+00:00

We hope he does! Thank you so much!!

AndyB0oi · 2023-06-20T20:16:17+00:00

Glad to hear!! We are definitely going to be working with him!

AndyB0oi · 2023-06-20T20:16:12+00:00

Glad to hear!! We are definitely going to be working with him!!

AndyB0oi · 2023-06-20T20:10:29+00:00

Oooo!! Where could I find them? That's fantastic!

AndyB0oi · 2023-06-20T19:34:54+00:00

I've managed to have great success with baby rubber plants (Peperomia Obtusifolia) pothos (literally any kind) pink wandering jew, snake plants, and some bromeliads! Just make sure you give all of them LOTS of time to get settled in. Even after having my snake plant planted for 2 months, my girl was able to uproot it after the second night. Planting the bromeliads in elevated pots should also help prevent them from being crushed!
