African Dwarf Frog on it's Back?

[Gnag the nameless]

I'm sorry for your loss I can't imagine losing one of my frogs.

I don't suggest buying animals from PetSmart. From what I've heard, breeders are the best way to go.

I'm thinking that your frog and goldfish died from ammonia/nitrate poisoning. If you are planning to get another frog, I would clean out the tank thoroughly, place everything back in, including the filter. Fill the tank up with conditioned water (de-chlorinated/chloramined) and cycle the tank. Here is a page on the cycling of tanks:

As for the maintenance of the tank once it is cycled, I'd do 25% water changes 2-3 times weekly. I'm no expert on these types of frogs, but I know that even small amounts of nitrate and ammonia can and will kill them.

I don't know any frog breeders in my area. Is there any pet stores that are good? I know that a Petco is nearby.

OK first all lets focus on making sure the set up is correct before replacing the frog.

Fish and frog combos, especially for newbies is generally a big no-no. Fish and frogs have different requirements and finding a way of perfectly melding their environment is a challenge even to an experienced hobbyist.

Please describe the size, set up, filtration, age etc. What is your water cleaning schedule? Are you familiar with what it means to have a cycled filter, the nitrogen cycle, ammonia, nitrite, nitrate, bacteria colonies etc? If I just confused the bejeesus out of you, please let us know. Cycling the tank and filter is the most important step before buying more little froggies.
