    Default New pixie frog and Water quality? What do you use?

    Ive had him/her for about 3 weeks and she has already doubled in size. I have her in a tub with eco earth/organic topsoil mix.
    Anyway she eats anything i put in there. Mostly crickets, but some red wigglers and a couple of small super worms(heads crushed).

    But ive been using bottled water and want to start treating my own but dont know what to use.Our water is hard and has chloramines and ammonia in it.I only know because I keep fish as well. But I use Prime for a water conditioner and dont know if that is appropriate for frogs or if I need to soften the water or anything..

    I would suggest you don't feed superworms, they are hard to digest ( possible impaction), they are very fattening too. Red wigglers most frogs hate because they produce nasty substance. Switch to nightcrawlers instead and dubia roaches, dusted with ca/vit d3 every other feeding and multivitamins once a week on a separate day.
    Save one animal and it doesn't change the world, but it surely changes the world for that one animal!
