    Default Dark spot on skin to red eyed tree frog - Help!

    Hi, I need help with my red-eyed tree frog. 3 days ago some black spots aperared on its back. He is doing fine, is eating and moving normally, but I am worried he has some kind of fungus.

    Here I leave some photos for you to see.

    Does anybody know what could it be?? and how should I treat him?

    Thank you!!!

    i am not a vet, nor as knowlegable as some of the people on this website about frogs, but if i was you i would clean my tank immediatly, google as much as i can, and if the fungus medicine wont hurt him i would at least try and see if it helps. also i read something somewhere about soaking the frog in water or a certain formula that can clear stuff like that up. i would google google google. google is your friend. but clean your tank. there are instructions on google about what to use to clean your tank.
