Are african clawed frogs lazy??

[Ken Worthington]

If I remember their tank should be at about 82? I think 78-82 degrees.

Personally I think that maybe too warm, maybe in the mid 70's ?

I keep my frogs at room temperature (68-72). In nature, these frogs are nocturnal, but in captivity they can be fairly active at any time. Mine love to rest their hind legs on the bottom of the tank and stick their nose above the water or just hang out on the bottom. My frogs become very active at night with both males and females calling. The chorus can be quite loud but you get used to it.

I think ACF is easy to adapt with its surrounding.My room's temperature it's about 77 with air conditioner (I live in tropical Island and it's hot in the daytime) and 86 without air conditioner. And seems ACF is ok with this whatever I turn on/off my air conditioner.

Daaaaaaam this thread is ancient. So much BS info here too.
You should ask your question in a new topic and give us a picture so we can have a look.
And we would love to see pics of your healthy frogs too.
