Okay I have had these 5 frogs in this same tank since Saturday. (and YES, I found the fifth missing frog from my earlier post) Anyway, I'm still new to this and have been reading lots and lots of information about how to best take care of my frogs. And i'm getting a little worried, overall I think my frogs are healthy and happy. They eat well, they play and frolic around the tank, they sing. What i'm worried about is there is this white fuzz that seems to be accumulating on everything in the tank, i think some of it is from them shedding but there is way too much of it at least i think for just 5 of them. I'm still a little unsure about the natural tank "cycle" and wonder is this white fuzz is apart of that. and also i'm concerned about the decorations in the tank i have for them to hide in. Also i will post some pics so i can get your guys' input on my setup. Okay so here are the numbers/facts, I have 5 ADF's in a 20 gallon tank, 16" tall with 14" of water in it. Has a lid with a light. I have the tank in front of a window, that faces east, I live in UTAH, next to the mountains so direct sunlight only hits that side of the building for only a few hours in the morning, and i keep the blinds closed most of the day i only open them up a little bit to let a little natural light to enter the room. I have no Filter in the tank, or thermometer, and the frogs are the only inhabitants in the tank. I will be getting PH test kit, and thermometer soon. I did a 25% water change today, and I use treated tap water in the tank. Any tips/suggestions will be greatly appreciated. Thanks!![]()
I'm not an expert, and hopefully someone else will comment who knows more, but in my experience that white fuzz accumulates on waste matter, like leftover food, bodily waste etc, hope that helps

where did you get them!?!?!? i'v been looking for some as a b-day present for my sister.
We bought them from PETSMART, PETCO has them also. They're cute, and very entertaining to watch. Be sure to get at least 2 and try to get 1 female and 1 male. I'm pretty sure at this point we have 4 males and 1 female the males "sing" to try and woo the female, and the males will butt heads fighting over her. Very entertaining if you have multiple frogs. I highly recommend you get some for yourself as well.
