2-# on inhabitants


how many frogs are in the tank? how old are the frogs. pictures would help. did you find dr fryes info? if not i will copy/paste it in here for you. i dont think you are supposed to use filtered tap. more like treated tap. i dont know because i dont use tap at all. i use spring water. liquid poop doesnt sound good. when mine was like that it was because it had hook worms. but i dont think that is the case here. others can answer more questions for you. i know with my red eyes humidity doesnt need to be that high. i dont know about whites though. a video of it walking doing what your talking about would also be very helpful

hi - there are no other inhabitants in the tank, and i updated my first post with pictures.

is it hard or flappy? others will chime in and give some more answers. i was just trying to make sure you give all the information they will need. i have never owned this species. i would still send dr frye an email.

[froqueen99]

it is hard like it is a bone of some sort but it is flexible. when i touched it her breathing would become rapid again like it really hurt her. i don't know what to do...thank you so much for your help, it is much appreciated!! i joined this forum just to be able to ask you guys and didn't know to follow a format. so once again thanks! i will be sure to email dr frye.

its no problem at all. im really sorry to hear about your frog. i wish i could be more of a help to you. dr drye is a very smart guy. with the information and pictures you have given me, he will be able to help you out greatly. you can also send fecals to him to get them checked for $18 plus shipping and he can give you medicine that you need to fix your frogs. he has been a blessing to many and it is amazing to have someone like him in the hobby who doesnt mind helping.


i wish you and your frog the best of luck and i will be keeping up with this thread so keep me posted..
