They say bad news comes in threes....here's hoping karma leavesme alone


First harvey...awful ammonia Burns from shipping but seems to doing well...


I just got home from work began the routine evening tank check...made it to the froglet tank and thought I was going to die...all but two of the froglets were dead - my heater had malfunctioned sometime between last night and this afternoon - I leave for work at 5am and the tank lights aren't set to turn on until 9am.

I am devastated - I can't handle any more frog tragedies


I know have on marbled baby and one reticulated albino left
 
I'm really sorry to hear about your heater goin' after loosing harvey, such a shame. I hope the two remaining froglets pull through.

update on the two remaining froglets



they are doing well, however I am still a nervous mama about their tank - each time I do their water change I put them into a separate container....here they are trying to escape lol! They have learned that feeding time and tank cleaning time go hand and hand. I actually feed them after the change to make it less stressful for them.
