    Default Meet my new African Dwarfs!

    Just got these lol fellows yesterday. Got a topfin filter but it vibrates waaay to much, so I gotta go back and get a whisper I don't really have names yet so any ideas would be appreciated. I thought maybe after some Greek gods. I dunno. Here are some pics, there are four frogs. Again any name ideas would be appreciated! Hope you like Thea cuties! BTW I think I'm going to take out one or both if the hanging plants and put in sine plants on the ground so I can see them better. One little guy just shed his skin. Really interesting to watch!

    Very cute! They look very healthy!

    Why not go with African gods since the frogs are from Africa? Wikipedia has a list of African gods and goddesses. Just search for List of African mythological figures.

    As far as the filter, I use an Azoo Palm Filter. I turn it on for about an hour each day to polish the water. Twice a week, I do 50% water changes. Before the filter I was doing 3 water changes a week. You should be able to do the same with the filter you are using now. Adding some large rocks, driftwood, or terracotta pots will help with biological filtration.

    Thanks! Yeah I like the African gods ideas I'll do dome research. Ok yeah I'll put it on for an hour each day and add some stuff. I think I'm just going to do complete water changes once a week. Would that be fine?

    I don't like 100% water changes unless ammonia or nitrites are present. But, if you do, make sure the temperature and pH in the old water and the new match.
