ADF sick or injured...

[Koda]

I have had a little bitty ADF in a 10g tank with a male betta and a platy.He seemed fine until today.I found him doing what at first appeared to be the zen frog pose on the surface.But then I saw the fish coming in and picking at him and he was not getting away from them.I removed him and then had to go to work.

When I got home he was belly up and at first I thought he was dead.I was going to dispose of the poor little critter, but when I came back to do it he was right side up again and moving about just a little.I see no signs of any fungus or anything obviously wrong.Not sure if the fish were bothering him first and weakened him,or if they only started in when he got too weak.

I'm hoping he'll be ok but I am not sure what care he can have other than rest and clean water.Anyone know what might help a stressed froggie?

Thanks in advance.

I would pm Inchworm she is real good with the frogs..I wish I knew what to tell you to do..I hope it gets better for you soon...And I like your bike..I got me a new one 2 months ago..I like riding them But I get made fun of here where I live because, No women here cant ride them.

Thanks...the little froggy died I think maybe conditions in the tank just weren't right for him.I may set something up just for the frogs as my son really likes them.In a community tank though I'm just never sure they are eating enough and all that.

Riding rocks.When I first got mine back in '97 there were not a lot of lady riders in the area.But now they are everywhere.Lots of the women in my CMA chapter ride their own.IMHO it's way better than being a passenger

Sorry about your frog, koda.

I feed mine with a turkey baster. They catch on pretty quick.

Thanks for the reply

What do you feed yours?

I have been using "Frog Bites",which my fish love, but the frogs don't really seem to go for all that much.I recently started getting frozen bloodworms and i did see him eat those.I wish I could find live food for them.
