    Default I found this growing in the viv ...

    i was doing some maintennace for the viv, and i found this growing in the viv and this kind of green slime at bottom, i have to mention that my viv has a false water bottom made with zoo med's waterfall kit, the viv is next to a window and it takes sunlight all the day ...

    Some kind of slime mold would be my guess. It should be harmless and will probably disappear soon. You might want to check your tank temp and humidity and see if they're within a good range.

    Also you said your frog used to be healthy? Did it get sick?

    the humidity is fine, in fact sometimes is a little low but never been above the good range, the frog is very healthy, never got sick, is eating the normal, i left some crickets in a glass bowl and some others loose to be hunted by the frog

    I wouldn't worry about it. Everything I read says that slime mold is fairly harmless.
