Xenopus frog food

[Jakub T]

So, I want to buy them this kind of easement. I also thought about a flat piece of wood on the surface. Unfortunately, this species of frogs often destroys and moves the elements in the aquarium - even quite large stones. All decorations must be strong, the stones can be connected together with aquarium silicone.

hi guys i have good news i've just started trying to breed earth worms, so hopefully they will start breeding soon.
I have been thinking of ordering some proper frog food for xenopus frogs. from where you are from Ser Terry, the USA. but the only problem is i dont know where they sell it , i dont know what types of food they sell in the pet stores and what food to order for my frogs. and if they will be able to mail or DHL me the food after i buy it. and what are the costs of Xenopus frog food.
I feel sorry for my frogs for not having a big variety of food. and its not like i can go and let my little frogs go in the near by pond of lake coz they will either get eaten by fish or get killed by the local kids as i've seen them do a number of times.
many times i feel like going at catching all the frogs in the aria and keeping them. but i cant coz i only have two tanks one that i keep the xen frogs in and the other with a juvenile African bull frog.
if you guys can please help me out on the food.
thanks
Angus

Earthworms would be a great addition to your frogs diet - good luck with your project Xenopus Express sells a good prepared food that is reasonably priced, but the shipping cost will be very high. I checked with a source in France, but due to international regulations, they cannot ship frog food outside the European Union.

A very good prepared food for Xenopus is Tetra's Repto-Min floating food sticks, if you can find it. My personal opinion is to save your money and feed your frogs earthworms or whatever is found locally in your area. Minced beef is OK as a treat. All of my frogs are fed only Repto-Min and they are very healthy and live 12 years or more.

It looks like the closest pet shops that sells reptile supplies are in Durban or Jo-berg, SA. They might be able to ship some frog food to you, but I am not familiar with postal regulations.

Hi, you might also check with Xenopus Express Xenopus Express Products - Xenopus Suppliers they have a good variety of food, some floating, some sinking, and different sizes, from tadpole on up. Price isn't bad either, and its really good food for the frogs. Hope this helps.
