Albino Toad

[BLONDBIRD]

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 feed him and how much to give, im feeding him bloodworm (frozen). He always seems to be hungry. I will be getting another toad to keep him company when the shop gets some more in. Is there any advice from anyone on the best way to care for this ugly but adorable pet.

this "toad"; I'm betting what you have is an albino Xenopus Laevis ACF (african clawed frog) and if so, you won't have any fish left as he will eat them all.

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 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?
