African frog listless and not eating

[Olympia]

I have been trying to nurse him by using electrolytes mixture hes still alive but very weak has anyone had this problem he may have got squiged when i moved my filter but i also put some myacin in the water as my female silver dollar appeared to have mouth fungus after the males were attempting to mate with her last week

Frogs and fish should be kept separate for this exact reason. Medications used to treat the fish usually kill the frog. Myxazin and most fish medications are poisonus to frogs. If the frog acted unwell after you added the medication, that is the most likely cause. Other causes are poor water quality, bad/ rotten food and diseases. Diseases being the least common cause and water quality or chemicals being the most common cause.

BASIC FIRST AID FOR FISH OR FROGS IN AQUARIUMS.
Test the water for ammonia, nitrite, nitrate and pH.

Wipe the inside of the glass down with a clean fish sponge. This removes the biofilm on the glass and the biofilm will contain lots of harmful bacteria, fungus, protozoans and various other microscopic life forms.

Do a 75% water change and gravel clean the substrate every day for a week or until the problem is identified. The water changes and gravel cleaning will reduce the number of disease organisms in the water and provide a cleaner environment for the fish to recover in. It also removes a lot of the gunk and this means any medication can work on treating the fish instead of being wasted killing the pathogens in the gunk.
Make sure any new water is free of chlorine/ chloramine before it is added to the tank.

Clean the filter if it hasn't been done in the last 2 weeks. However, if the filter is less than 6 weeks old, do not clean it. Wash the filter materials/ media in a bucket of tank water and re-use the media. Tip the bucket of dirty water on the garden/ lawn. Cleaning the filter means less gunk and cleaner water with fewer pathogens so any medication (if needed) will work more effectively on the fish.

Increase surface turbulence/ aeration to maximise the dissolved oxygen in the water.

Post clear pictures and video of the fish so we can check them for diseases.

Thankyou ive been doing mist of those things hes hung in for 4 days but think its gone now tried an electrolyte dip but was a homemade one as i cant buy unflavoured around here. Poor thing. the dose of myaxcyn was a half or less for size of my tank

Doesn't have to be a strong dose to kill a frog. They absorb stuff through their skin, and poison is poison... some poisons can kill in tiny amounts, and most meds will say whether they're safe with inverts or other aquatic life.

Well, silver dollars get pretty large, if your fish are growing to adult size, that increases the bioload. What's the size of the tank and the rest of the stocking? How many of which fish/frogs/inverts?

Im sure hes been through the algae treatments too

Um, if I'm not mistaken, those are all WAY too large for what seems to be a 23 gallon tank. Would someone else verify this as I'm not 100% on this.

How many silver dollars? How many clown loaches? How many and what species of pleco? How many frogs were in with these fish?

Yeah, your water is going to be terrible with that stocking in that tank, and the fighting is going to be terrible as well. How long has the tank been set up with these fish?

You right, sadly. 90 litres is 23 US gallons, the measurement we use to in the hobby since the US is being stubborn about accepting metric... (love you, US friends!)

So it's a 23g tank that is massively overstocked with massive fish that need 100g or more sized tanks. I'm betting now that it's a common pleco too.

I'm working on understanding liters. I know it's about 4 liters to a gallon or something like that.

Honestly, I'd rehome ALL your fish in the tank and go from there.

Years ive had silver dollars for ever there is no fighting its a strange tank size not completely sure of gallonage the fish have grown large no doubt it is overstocked now one each of loach and shark plecco huge now 4 silvers
