But Bumpy always has to be ready to spring into action at a moment's notice in order to get a cricket if Gnag is out hunting too. What I often do to solve this is place one or two crickets nearby the filter. Gnag will go after them, and during this, I'll place 3 on the water reeds, which Bumpy will then eat. Usually this works, and it makes both frogs happy.
Food competition is a tough one. I have three whites in the same tank. They usually all start to get into position for dinner when they wake up. I always wait until all three are awake before I feed. Usually they all go for a cricket one right after the other so while one is swallowing the other is eating and so on. One or two times I've noticed one have a cricket on it's head and the other goes for it and gets a whole frog head in it's mouth! Luckily they don't like the taste of frog
