help with my new fire bellied toad

[cct1124]

Thanks! Going to get another hopefully tomorrow. I really hope that resolves the problem! I feel bad cause he's just moping around =(

And I'll definitely let you know if that does the trick! Wish me luck!

Hi, welcome! Im new too :P

Anyways, I know a lot about these guys, and for one thing, they love to be together, you should never buy one firebelly without buying it a buddy

They will interact with eachother, and be in the water most of the day. (be sure you have a hiding spot half in the water half on land)

So if yours is inactive, not eating, not soaking, im 95% sure its because its alone
Hope this helps! If you get him a buddy let us know if he gets better!

They definitely love to have friends. When I got my FBT's a couple years ago I only bought one at first. The next day I went back to the pet store to buy another one. The second I put the new in the tank my first toad, Tito, started ruffing like crazy and was so happy. Since then I've got a few more toads, and they all like to interact regularly.

Hi guys!

So I got another FBT 2 days ago, and it WORKED like a charm! Instantaneously he started singing and became very lively. He likes to follow the new guy and now even hangs out in the water! (he never did that before). They get along great, and I'm SO glad I got another one! So I'm sure he was lonely all along! Problem solved!

Thanks all for your help!!!!

One of them has wedged himself inbeetween the filter and the glass but hasn't come out the other two are just sitting on the side of a rock and in the water what can I do to get them more active?Are they sick by chance?What should I do?
