I agree. Reptomin is actually a low quality pellet though ACF seem to do OK on it. Nightcrawlers with reptomin as a backup is how I feed my frogs now, I mix the reptomin in with frozen fish food I have laying around like daphnia or mysis to make the reptomin more nutricious though (thaw the frozen food, mix with reptomin, roll it into a ball and hand feed it -- messy). Once every few weeks I'll toss some crickets in there and they go crazy trying to hunt them. I'd say my ACF are on a 80% canadian nightcrawler diet now.

I tried tilapia a few times, the frogs really seemed to like it. I worry about it fouling the tank up though so I don't feed it very often. I wish you could get some aquatic crustaceans/insects as feeders, like freshwater gammarus, does not seem like there are many if any in the trade. I tried to find some scuds in the ponds around here and I was probably tresspassing and what I scooped up never contained any lol..

That aside, my male ACF is still not full grown (maybe 2 inches nose to vent) and he will eat reptomin but I usually just toss a nightcrawler in his tank every other day, he's only 2 inches but he's downing full grown canadian nightcrawlers like a champ. I think it's easier to feed worms, drop it in and they eat it immediately, they come up to your hands and take it from you, no mess no pellets to clean up. I find that ACF don't really find reptomin that well. I try to hand feed it, if you drop it in, they miss half of it and you have to clean it up.

It's always best to strive to leave zero leftover food in your tank.
