    Relax,
    This condition happens over time if the frog is kept in the wrong conditions.

    Read the care sheet.

    i just finished reading it.
    so what i have to do right now is reducing the water in the tank, and the edema will gone by itself?
    also i am not quite understand with this
    "Adult Pacman frogs can be fed crickets 2-3 times a week, and youngsters should be fed 5-7 times each week."
    right now i fed it once every 2days with 2 crickets.
    should i change it into everyday 2 crickets or everyday 1 crickets?
    thank you louis.

    Best Regards,

    Hey slow down the horses.. These were measurements in cm... For my US friend.. You know... Metric system... Cm lol

    anyhow the tank is just fine, that is about 12"x12" footprint, well a bit bigger then that, may be 13x13. I wouldn't jump into edema diagnosis either. or doing anything drastic.
    i would def. change the foam and get fine coconut fibre. Mineral water not sure. In Europe definition of mineral water is different from US, and it's possible in Indonesia it's different from either. Let's refraze the question - would you use that water for a fish tank?

    To confirm what I think is going on, a pic of that thumb the way I described needed

    edit. Sry I wasn't clear enough earlier. Picture of the thumb, not the thumb lol pic of the front leg will do too. Im looking for a big dark mole looking thing on the inside of the thumbs.
    Save one animal and it doesn't change the world, but it surely changes the world for that one animal!

    for a fish tank. yeah. definitely
    we used this 'mineral' water for drink. so fish tank is obviously okay
    can you also show me an example of this 'thumb' picture?

    pic 1 2 3 : Albino

    Pic 4 5 : Strawberry

    i can see some black spot on my strawberry pacman, but i couldnt find one in the albino.
    is it something fatal / dangerous? how can i cure this??
    is it the reason why their mouth swollen and not pooping at all for 2 weeks (for the albino)

    Thankyou

    Best Regards,
