Now I'm looking for some advice on a couple of things.
I read that you should stop feeding them everyday after a certain age. What is that age?
I also read that some frogs poo very infrequently. He's been going about every other day to every three days. Is this normal?
I'd like to start using live plants instead of artificial. Any suggestions for attractive plants for a 10 gallon? I'd prefer leafy/ bushy ones but will think about any.
Right now I feed him crickets everyday dusted with calcium every other day. What should I feed him that's small as a treat every once in a while to vary his diet? I have guppy fry fairly regularly, would these be ok? Thanks in advance for any and all help.
