If they don't like filters...

Aw crud, maybe I was just misinformed when I bought this. The description I saw said 10-30gph (I was aiming for under powered) and a review said they used it with frogs. I had it aimed to the back corner but I guess it is just too strong overall.

He has been swimming around like crazy since I turned it off and is now calling, so it definitely was the filter. I will look into the other kinds. I might just do water changes for now so as to not stress him out for a while though.

Thanks for double checking the filter specs for me.

a Whisper hang on the back filter might be a good option for you - - if you have the water line even with the out put it makes a very very minor current.


it is quite and subtle - very nice for smaller tanks with frogs

I hadn't found a Whisper one I thought would work - 1, because my water level is low right now, about 2/3 filled (I started at 1/2 have been raising it about 1" each water change) and 2, I have had two for my other tank break this year (crappy hangers and suction cups) and I'm not too terribly happy with that brand right now.

If I don't find anything else that will seem to work, I can go that route though so it's good to know the amount of flow is right.

you could also try an elite stingray internal filter, just aim the output at a corner. I have used this with newly morphed ACF froglets with success
