I'm sorry to hear that. Thanks for posting though, i'm sure it will help future and current pyxie owners.

I'm sorry to hear about your little guy

I lost my Chorus frog, Chrome, in a very similar way; he escaped, and unfortunately, and because I never found him, the most likely thing he did was head into my big bullfrog's tank.. and you can guess the rest so, I know how you feel and I want to let you know that you are not the first person to have had this or something similar happen.

Once again, I'm sorry for your loss.

Im sorry for your loss .

This is a serious lesson to be learned. More than likely your big guy is the reason the little one got out. The large male probably knocked the lid off of the smaller enclosure while attempting to attack the little one through its enclosure. These are strong frogs and when they get determined to get or do something they will keep it up until they succeed or wear themselves out in the process. Highly cannibalistic species should be kept separate even if housed like this.
