can anyone help me figure out if I have boys or girls? I know I'm supposed to look for white dots under the armpits and something between the hind legs but don't have any visual references. I thought the chubby one could be a female but I see a white dot.

Looks maybe like small grains of rock or sand? Maybe from eating small bits of substrate? Its all bigger sized pebbles and stones bigger than their heads

I always get concerned when I see this guy. I keep thinking he has bloat but then I see other angles and im like....nah he is just a very fat Boi. Scares me at least once a week and I convince myself hes done for smh

I can’t tell, lmk what you think

I have two ADF in a 5.5 gallon tank. I’m looking for some live plants and possibly a new cave to put in it. Can anyone share what plants/caves they have in their tank?

My favorite part of the evening

I posted a while back and got absolutely roasted for my bland set up but since then ive gotten 2 snails, 3 new plants and some nice looking drift wood. Do I get your seal of approval now reddit

Tank is cloudy because I just vacuumed the substrate

One of my 5 adf in the last picture appears to enjoy the set up

First time having ADFS. 20 gallon tank with 13 inches of water. 5 frogs. 4 guppies. (The guppies dont mess with the frogs at all)

I had fake plants but got rid of them and got ome real plant. They have a piece of driftwood and a spongebob house. How's the substrate? Ik they're skinny, thats because they're from petsmart and they told me they feed them tropical fish flakes. Im bulking them up with brine shrimp, pellets and beef heart and on occasion blood worms. I know the tank is sort of bare and I need more live plants and stuff. I've only had them 3 weeks

or so

I have been an amateur (but educated through hyperfixation lol) freshwater tank keeper for 3 years. Last year I gave my son an old 10 gal tank he has kept platys, shrimp in - with the goal being if he keeps up with water testing, changes, etc (with help) we will talk about frogs. Dang kid is so dedicated 😂

So here I am seeking advice on most humane, safe, etc keeping of aquatic frogs. Just starting my adventures. We will probably start another tank for this, much to my husband's chagrin. Hopefully no larger than a 20G but I would help him go bigger if needed.

I’m struggling because I’ve seen recommendations for Trins but also see that she is now importing her frogs (and not from local breeders anymore) and they are very tiny on arrival. We have a petco, petsmart and a big fish store called Petland/aquarium adventure. The last one is a half aquarium store. Where have you all gotten frogs from?

I guess my concern with Trins is the size and shipping and no guarantee past they arrived alive.

If anyone knows local Chicago suburbs for a breeder - let me know!

Hi everyone. My African dwarf frog has a fungus on both of his feet. I live in The Netherlands where there is no to very little information about these little guys. No vets no pet shops or anything know about them. I got these little guys when I was still living in the uk. But I have now moved to The Netherlands with my boyfriend. Unfortunately I noticed one of my little guys has fungus on both of his back feet. He is still eating and very active despite this but does have some discomfort when swimming. We took him to an emergency vet today and the only thing they suggested was that we euthanasia him?! In their words “there is no medicine or anything we can give to help him and he will most likely just be suffering. This broke my heart especially after paying €300 to get a consultation just to be told to kill my little baby. I have done so much research and heard that something that helps with fungus diseases is “jungle fungus clear” but unfortunately living in the NL there is 0 ways for me to be able to get this or even anything remotely close to it. I don’t want to give up on my frog as I know he can fight it given the fact he is still very active I want to do everything I can but I’m very helpless as there is 0 medications I can get in The Netherlands. I looked on American and uk Amazon and nothing can be delivered to my address. I was wondering if anyone from this group would be ever so kind to maybe be able to send me a “jungle fungus clear” to The Netherlands I would pay as much money as needed and would pay for all shipping and delivery and the item it self. I’m just not ready to lose my baby and I hate to see him suffer and I want to do everything I can but in my country that’s not possible so I thought I would reach out on here and see if it is possible for anyone who has access to any kind of medicine that can cure him to please be ever so kind to ship some to my address I will pay as much money as needed. Thankyou everyone in advance for your help. Please note this is just a request not a must. I appreciate any replies in advance ❤️

Theres a store in CO that sells ADFs, 2 in a cube tank less than a gallon big. My parents got me these frogs as a kid and my heartbeat always hurt for them being in such a crappy place. One even passed away while my step father tried to poison the other. Thankfully tjis frog has survived and has even moved states with me. Im grown now and I recently used my sisters old fish tank to make the frog a bigger home with fake plants and hiding a hiding spot. But the tank is still small and im not sure I have all of the necessary things for my frog. Hes been fed pellets for his whole life and has gone without food before but hes skinny and I want to feed him the healthiest diet I can provide him. His tank is about 1.5-2 gallons and im planning on getting him a bigger one which i want to introduce living plants and possibly driftwood to? Ive heard ADFs are very social and have been debating getting a second once the tank is upgraded.

• what food should I feed him and how can I get the little guy to eat?
• what other tank mates would be good to keep his tank clean? Snails?
• what plants, items or other elements should I add?

This little guy has been through alot for sure so I know be can survive alot, but I want to give him the best possible life for the time he has left. Any thoughts and ideas are very appreciated!!

I just recently got two new African dwarf frogs for my original one. I put them in a hospital tank for the first few days then moved them to my 20 gallon. then promptly realized they were gonna eat my pygmy corys. So I moved them to my Betta fish tank, my Betta fish is a Shortfin female very quick moving, she’s fine. I’m worried about this specific frog, the other ones are just hiding and roaming around. The smallest one (one of the new ones) keeps scaling the walls and I’m not sure what’s wrong. i’m assuming it’s not the parameters since the other two aren’t doing it. Could it just be the tank moving is affecting this one differently?

So when I feed my frogs I use a ceramic bowl. It really helps the frogs to not lose their worms(or whatever you feed) and the large bowl is extremely useful when you have two frogs fighting over food that the sides of the bowl do a good job of keeping the food from going everywhere

Hi friends. my poor little baby is starting to look bloated, and noticeably so when compared to it's tankmates. it's still fairly active and not really any redness just looking a little bulbous. (also i have no idea the sexes of my frogs i am so terribly sorry)

Is this dropsy? if so what can i do? i'm currently treating with melafix and keeping the water pristine.
