    Thanks! How can you tell male? I'm hoping cuz I'd like to name him Tank. He's a toughy. I agree. His water didn't even look like water. He couldn't even burrow. He was tucked part way in the rocks. He looked so uncomfortable. And he was under bright lights with no where to relax or get away from the light.

    I read on another forum once, talktothefrog by a guy named Steven Busch or it might of been Ed Clark that you can distinguish the two sexes fairly accurate by looking at how the nose protrudes from the head. If from the nostrils down pretty much goes just straight down flat, then it's a male like how yours looks in the pictures. Females tend to protrude farther out to the end of their mouth rather then straight down. It shouldn't be full relied upon, but they said it worked with most cases of their pacmans. Wow if I saw him in those conditions I might of had to pick him up to, enjoy him .

    Does he croak or ribbet? I think the females are mute, but the males make sounds

    Congrats on the impulse frog purchase! I hope you gave the pet store a talking to or you might end up buying another one the next time you go in

    The sex doesn't matter for that name, look up "tank girl - Google Search". (I'm only slightly ashamed to admit I loved the movie and I have yet to read the comics it's based on).
