Retf prolapse, help!

Thanks so much for the help guys. The prolapse went back in. The redness around the very looks better and he went to sheep in his normal spot on glass. I will do pedialyte soaks a few times a day, hold food tonight, aged watch and how for normal poop. I will keep y'all posted.

Honey baths also work rather than just sugar water. It will reduce swelling similarly to the sugar baths. I'm actually surprised this wasn't suggested, but Brian and Lynn have you covered.

Hi Lisa,
As mentioned in my PM ............you will want to be very careful about feeding him too soon.
If it's difficult to separate them for feeding ( as it sounds ! ) ; then I would hold food for both .
It's better to hold food for both then feed the one that had the prolapse .......too soon .
I don't think it's a good idea to separate them just for a feeding, either---as it's too stressful on your other frog !
Is it possible you could pick up another quarantine tank over the next couple of days- or like you said---hopefully move one into a your "new tank"?

I'm happy to hear things are heading in the right direction.

Lynn
