I have 2 ADFs in a 1-gal cookie jar. They seem happy and I do frequent water changes. But I am concerned about one thing. The bigger frog (Bertha) is, well, bigger, than the other one (Spaz). I don't think I've ever seen Spaz's belly look like she's eaten whereas Bertha's is frequently well-rounded after I feed them. I've tried putting an eyedropper and a turkey baster with food into the water in front of Spaz, but she just swims away. I'm afraid she's starving. What can I do? (I named her Spaz bc she's always moving... basically looking like she's spazzing out.)
 
Can you separate them for feeding purposes? Put Spaz in something that has a lid and holds water, and let him eat, and then, when he's had his fill, but him back in the tank with Bertha.
 
Depends largely on how much you feed them at a time. I feed mine small amounts (3-4 bloodworms or blackworms per frog) every other day. They aren't fat, but they aren't skinny, so I figure that's good.
