Hi guys, been a while but I'm back for some quick advice.
My 2 tincs were fighting for a while, and the little one eventually got skinny so I decided to build him a new tank.
Got it all set up, hideyholes, kept an eye on it. Pest (the bullied frog) was feeding at first, but stopped. I found him dead this morning, arms and legs stretched out behind him in a corner.
I guess I just wanted to know if there was anything else I could have done. The other frog is doing fine in his original tank, happy as anything.
I only bought materials from dartfrog uk, and didnt put anything different in the new tank than I had in the old one.
Oh and sorry if this is the wrong section, seemed the most appropriate
Where these Tincs the same you got in 2010? If so, took them a while to get in a fight. Well, you could have removed the smaller frog out as soon as fight was noted and maybe that would have changed results.
With animals in captivity, the "loser" of a fight can't get away from the "winner" and the increased stress usually leads to malnourishment and lower immunity. Then an opportunistic pathogen does the rest. Sorry for the Tincs death.
Remember to take care of the enclosure and it will take care of your frog!
