Budgett's frog Eats Samurai Pacman Food (Videos)

[mpmistr]

Nice frog! I am inspired to pick some of this food up myself. Judging by the appearance of the food I bet it looks the same going out as it does going in lol.. but I guess the frogs won't mind. =P

Hah, you hit the nail on the head with that comment!

Have you thought of using sausage food casings? I see a lot of food pieces falling off that will decompose and increase the bio-load on system. Do watch out for any ammonia spikes and eventual increased nitrate levels.

I do weekly complete water changes so that shouldn't be too big of a problem. Since I have to do complete water change, sausage casing may be unnecessary. Great suggestions though!

Normally the level of water for Budgett's frogs must be lower than this, no ?

I think the depth of water will depend on the length of the animal. Less than three times the body length would be a safe water level for them. My frog is roughly 5 inches and the water depth I have is about 12 inches. She also has a rock cave providing her a platform that's about 3-4 inches to the water surface. These frogs have nostrils located on top of the head and can free float easily. Drowning should not be much of an issue for them. After all, they are aquatic frogs. However, a platform near the surface should always be provided.

You got it backwards Namio. Its one and a half to 3 times the thickness of the frog when at rest.
