    I don't use really use floor chemicals as i have tile and just mop the floor with water every now and then and its not like i had done it all that recent so it in my house and that was how i had my tank and i have since closed the hole and have reinforced it ten times over i can barely move it and you are right in saying their escape artists the hole was only an inch wide and it was obscured by a cloth and that had seemed to discourage them until now. and i have kept these frog for most of my life. also i have friends who have had problems that are along the same circumstances but the frog survived so had been hoping that shed survive but she past on. After reviewing her i have decided that she was just not able to handle the stress or there was a internal injury not visible from the outside

    PS the profile picture i use is a picture of my male albino

    Sorry I missed this. I do not think there is much you could have done once she escaped, once they get out you have to find them fast. She could have been injured during the fall, or damaged somehow while out of the tank, there is really no way to know.

    I had a frog that did the same thing, I was just a bit luckier and found her uninjured. You did the right thing though to place her in some water so she could rehydrate herself and regain strength.

    All you can really do is as Carlos said and to make sure the lid is 100% secure. Here is how I keep my ACF secure, I use a glass lid and a canister filter, the plastic backing of the glass lid is fit snug to the canister tubing. Since I've had this set up, I've had no escapes. You may also want to lower the water level a bit, 3"-4" works.

    thanks for your reply but as i forgot to mention i have also bought clips so my fat frogs cant get out by hitting the lid off some how. and as i mentioned prior i have secured it so nothing can get in or out
