    Default Cricket

    I have an odd question, but I am concerned. I have an adult (about 3 years old) bumble bee dart. He is alone in the tank. I recently have seen a large cricket in the tank with him. Its almost the same size as the from. I have no idea how it got in there but I would like to know if it is any danger to my frog. I know that crickets can be carniverous so I worry about my frog. Anyone know if I should worry about this?

    You should take it out asap. Crickets can get quite nippy when they're hungry and one that size can easily overpower your frog. As for how it got there, I can only presume it hatched from an egg deposited by another cricket in the tank or it got in from outside.
