Post photos of your African Dwarf Frog Set up

Hi Aspen,

a terra cotta pot would be a nice idea for sure- those frogs really like to hide. Also, they become more "brave" if they have enough hiding spots. Live floating plants such as hornwort, pennywort, duckweed, frogbit etc. would be a great addition as well, as they provide shady spots (frogs don´t like bright light), help with maintaining a good water quality by consuming nitrates and the frogs love to rest on the surface hanging on floating plants. Fake plants don´t do anything for the water quality, but the frogs don´t really care as long as they have structures to hide in. Maybe you could replace them by easy-to-gro live plants like Anubias sp. or else or mix with live plants.
It´s great that you keep your frogs in a decent-sized species-only tank
I don´t see a heater- please keep in mind that those are tropical animals. The temp should be at a more or less stable 74-79° F. Cool temperatures or big day-to-night swings might harm them at least over the long-term.

That would explain why they run whenever I turn on the LED light. I'll have to look into getting some fake floating plants for now as I'm not confident in my plant keeping abilities just yet.
I have a heater that I bought, but had to take out because when I was testing it (pre-frog) the temp was getting up to 82° on the lowest setting. It stays between 78-80° anyway and I might need a way to cool it off when the summer really kicks in. I may need to break it out this winter depending on the unpredictable weather.

Ok, that´s warm enough
I would consider cooling the tank if the temp hits 86°. Maybe you can trade your heater in for a smaller one before the next winter. There are some models that can securely heat a 5 gal tank. But it´s good that you tested yours before putting in the frogs
