Ive never heard of new tank syndrome so I dont know what that is. Can you explain it to me? Thanks :)

Hi I have got a 4 foot aquarium and the water has become cloudy, I have a filter which is working fine as it is a new one, I remember being able to buy something that you can add to the water to make it clear again, I used this occasionally when I used to keep fish, the question is I have got 3...

Hi I have 3 acfs living happily together, no other living thing is in the tank with them as they wouldnt be alive for long, I definatly have 2 males and the other one looks like a female, the males are always hugging each other and the female dosnt seem bothered by this, she just swims around...

Hi I have 3 ACFs and no other living thing inthe tank, it is true that they will attack just about anything which is why they are on their own, their tank is 12 inches high which is fine for them, they like to sit on the filter and poke their heads out of the water, I find the acfs very...

Hi I have 3 acfs in my tank and they get really excited when I feed them and nearly always miss their food but they do find it in the end when they crawl around the bottom of their tank, Have you got the dwarf frogs or the clawed ones? My 3 will quite happily polish off 2 cubes of bloodworms and...

I have 3 Acfs and I dont use a heater with them, the water is room temperature which is about 23 degree celcius, on a warm day it can be up to 25 degree celcius, mine dont seem to mind, Acfs are hardy little things. :grr:

Ok thanks. :nod:

Hi Bex Im not an expert on ACFs as ive only had mine a little while. I have one albino acf who is about 3 and half inches long when stretched out and I feed him every other day, he will eat an entire cube of bloodworm, I also have 2 baby acfs which are about 4 centimetres long and I feed them...

Does anybody know if African Clawed Frogs can be fed wild frog spawn from a pond? :/

Hi Bex I have 3 ACFs and I normally defrost the bloodworm first, I put the cube in an old egg cup and leave it to defrost for about an hour, It should just sink straight to the bottom when defrosted giving your froggies a chance to eat it before the fish can get at it. Hope this helps you. :nod:

I also keep an ACF in a tank with a filter and it dosnt bother him, in fact he sits on the top of the filter and pokes his eyes out the water. He is getting bigger and fatter than ever so he must be happy. :thumbs:

It must have something to do with being surrounded by water. Are there any African clawed frog owners on Hayling? Would like to hear from you. :)

My ACF floats around the top of the tank and also sits on top of the filter for hours on end and pokes his eyes out the water, he's perfectly healthy and eats well. :thumbs:

I have a Nitrite and a ammonia water tester left from when I had fish I will use these first then perhaps pop out to my local Aquatic place to see what they suggest, thanks again. :* The ACF didnt eat my fish they had died and I decided to replace them with something more interesting to watch...

I have been on the fluffyfrog.com site, I found it very funny, perhaps I will try there for some answers, thanks for your help soritan, I thought that he might be shedding his skin but he seems to be doing it every other day which was why I was unsure. :thumbs:

My Albino ACF was thrusting himself around last night and then threw up the entire contents of his stomach which he had filled 8 hours earlier, then the dirty ratbag was trying to stuff it back in his mouth, I managed to get some of it out with a net but he beat me to most of it, Is this normal...

Does anybody know when a juvenile ACF becomes an adult? Also I read that they can eat raw meat eg. steak or mince, How much and how often can they have this? :/

Hi and thanks for your advice, It is an albino african clawed frog and im sure its a male because ive seen a picture of both sexes and he definatly looks like a male from the back end. He is 100% aquatic. Is it right that he can have as a treat raw meat? I live in the south of England on a small...

When I first got my aquarium 4 years ago I got my fish and two albino toads, I have a cold water tank and the bloke in the shop suggested I take the toads aswell, Big mistake as they started to attack and eat my fish so I took them back to the shop about 2 months later, My fish have died over...

The reason I want a mate for him is because he seems lonely in the tank by himself, the shop where I got the the toad gave me advice on how to look after it, I just wanted some additional advice, maybe something useful, ive had him for a week now and he seems to be ok, I wanted two from the...

I live on Hayling Island and have rung around numerous shops to try and find a mate for my toad who I have called "Toadie", Is there a breeder who lives near me who can help me with finding a mate for Toadie?

There arnt any fish in the tank, its just the toad, hes about 3 inches long when hes stretched out, I just need abit of advice on how to care for him, and how long do they live and how big do they grow? :*

I have purchassed an Albino Toad, he is in a 2 foot tank, I was advised not to put stones in the bottom because he might swallow them and wont be able to pass them, so instead i have put coloured sand which I got from an aquatic shop, Because I only have the one toad im unsure of how often to...
