My African Clawed Frog is not moving!

Admittedly I did not cycle very well. I let the water sit for 24 hours and treated it with baking soda to raise the PH but I changed the water all at once.
No cleaning agents were used except for hot water and a scrubby.
Thank you for your condolences.

If it wasn't the problem an uncycled tank not good for these guys# they don't take well to chlorine & heavy metals which are found in tap water in enough concentrations to cause issues# that's why water conditioner are crucial then tank should be cycled about 2 weeks # even 25% weeklycwater changes same applies to add conditioner and preferably not add the new water for 8 hours

Thank you, that will be helpful information if I decide to get another frog.

No worries give it another go for sure" I would suggest bottle of quick start during cycling

Just for future knowledge & possible help can you please tell me why you added the baking soda ie your initial PH also the amount you served by tank size

[AFrogNamedPete]

Baking soda was one of the most feasible ways to raise the PH level and it was about 4 tsp for my 20 gallons.
