Please don't yell at me

I would try to get a filter. These guys create quite a bit of waste. If you get the underwater type, the lid won't be a problem. I bought mine at Petsmart but I can't remember how much it was.

I feed my frogs the Can O' Worms all the time. Along with the freeze dried tubifex worm blocks, frozen bloodworms, and I just recently fed them a live earthworm. You can also occasionally feed them frozen beef heart. Don't feed too much because its too fatty and can cause heart disease just like in humans. But they love it and its a great treat to them.

Best of luck to your froggies!!!

I must have done something right! One of them is calling right now. Totally freaking out my cat, which is hilarious.

I tested this morning and the nitrates were up, nitrites were zero and everything else looked good. I got a heater at Walmart because the night time temp dropped too much. My turtle's tank stays warmer with the basking lamp I suppose. Let the heater run and switched them over slowly this evening. They immediately swam and explored. I was worried they'd hide but any time my 5yo gets near the tank, they come running like puppy dogs! It is SO cute!

I thought for sure we had two females because I didn't see the under arm bump, but maybe one is a male. I read up real quick and it sounds like the females usually only answer? This is like a two second crickety sort of sound. Either way, I assume they are happy for now, woot!

I am going to get to the pet store as soon as I can to check out the undergravel filters (never used one before!) and to get some food variety and a light.

Thank you all for your help!

Oh, another thing to look for in a filter is if it has an adjustable flow rate. I checked mine today and apparently it doesn't. You can change where the flow comes from, but now how fast it is. *sigh* So many things to look out for, eh? But these guys are worth it. They really are adorable. Mine use to call a lot too. I'm not sure why they have quit calling as much.
