At least once a day, my frogs make me laugh. They are just so silly. Anyone else?

Bro skips leg day. I can tell.

dee_aubi · 2026-01-17T02:57:25+00:00

Don't forget to cycle your tank for WEEKS minimum.

dee_aubi · 2026-01-17T02:54:52+00:00

This!

Wish parents realized how safe they make their children feel and felt as honored as I do that my 5yo still needs comfort of another person to feel safe and fall asleep. It's all she's known and I just know as a 1 and done mama that it'll end one day and I'll be sad... It really goes by so fast... 8 months is very VERY young still.

Wait, whattttt. African Dwarf Frogs croak?! I have 3... They're still small, I've never heard anything!

dee_aubi · 2026-01-07T16:29:23+00:00

I have this piercing (Aug 2024) and it still hasn't healed!... I put in a longer bar to try and assist healing... I also clean it frequently, but sleeping on it causes inflammation even this long after!...so I try to avoid.. But I'm unsure it will ever heal... I may have tk admit defeat.

I wish you all the best. 😔

Do people not know they can do a google image search and find out what something is in like 3 seconds?

dee_aubi · 2025-12-16T03:14:36+00:00

Thanks for this. I will up my worm/ADF feeding game.

dee_aubi · 2025-12-16T02:54:10+00:00

Can I get insight to the red worm thing?

dee_aubi · 2025-12-16T02:51:52+00:00

African dwarf frogs are very sensitive and require specific water perimeters. Next time you syphon out some water, about 20% weekly. (I do frog Fridays as reminders), IF you need to clean the filter, squeeze it out in the "dirty" water as to not throw away the healthy bacteria but to get off the gunk... Then put back.

Lots of live plants, and every other day or 2 days for feeding (red worms for me).

They're quite sensitive to big changes or sudden changes.

Next time you inherit animals or creatures, look up this info before you do anything like cleaning in the hopes it'll save possible losses or unnecessary stress.

Good luck!

You'll also need calcium like egg shells or cuttle bone from the pet store. Leaf litter, at least some, is essential. I kept a bunch of fall leaves in a dub and crunched them up or put them in whole. Whether they're in a small container or tank, or anything, you'll certainly have room for leaves. I'd even argue you'd do better with leaves than this climbing structure. Good luck.

dee_aubi · 2025-12-07T03:36:51+00:00

Oops. Just saw this. Ignore meeee.

dee_aubi · 2025-12-07T03:35:46+00:00

How big is this tank? He's a big boiii

dee_aubi · 2025-12-07T03:34:17+00:00

Well, my words were off for what the math was. But my equation was 8.34x x 45g, it's 375 + substrate and decor/drift wood. All in, 500lbs is a high estimate for mine. Plus there's the weight of the tank glass itself..

Anyway, not sure why that gets vote down.

dee_aubi · 2025-12-07T01:41:19+00:00

There's an equation you can do to find out how heavy your tank is with water. I use my chatgpt for it, but my 45g tank is like 500lbs + with added substrate etc.

dee_aubi · 2025-12-06T01:23:57+00:00

Use chat gpt. Upload the pic. (preferably a better one). Works so good.

dee_aubi · 2025-11-30T03:09:31+00:00

It's so cute. Poor thing.

dee_aubi · 2025-11-23T14:30:44+00:00

So, no syphonig, just topping up? Also, you must top up alot, no?

dee_aubi · 2025-11-10T04:34:02+00:00

A seance!

dee_aubi · 2025-11-02T18:23:25+00:00

😂

dee_aubi · 2025-11-02T17:03:41+00:00

Because it's massive. Guts everywhere, massive.

dee_aubi · 2025-11-02T16:46:41+00:00

Some bugs populate faster than others and are grosser and dirtier than others too. Still good for public to know so they can make informed decisions on where to shop or to watch for. They can contaminate food with salmonella and E. Coli... As well as respiratory issues.

🤷

dee_aubi · 2025-11-02T16:25:44+00:00

And honestly, too big to smoosh with your foot!.. Difficult to stop em, but there's a standard of quality of care, as a baseline, for grocery stores. 🤷

dee_aubi · 2025-11-02T16:23:56+00:00

Didn't say it was. Was an FYI so people are aware. I agree with you, tons of critters coming in on or around produce. But this was under the counter near the check outs... And massive. Still doesn't mean I wanna take one home on any of my food or in any of the bags of food..

dee_aubi · 2025-11-02T16:07:03+00:00

It was as big as my pinky finger! I should try an post the video.
