Fishy treats?

[Mattiez]

I thought fish aquarium dechlorinator drops were fine for frogs, so long as all they are are just the simple chlorine/chloramine drops. I've been using API brand aquarium drops for my frogs, with no ill effects yet. Both my young leopard and firebelly spend hours and hours in the water and are fine. Granted, I've only had them for a couple months, but what makes you think it would be bad? Hopefully John and Kurt can give their opinions here, as I always thought simple dechlorinators were universal.

The owner of my LFS is the one who told me that, so I guess I should of said "I know I've heard", haha. Maybe it was just the brand of drops I was asking about, that or she was just saying it. Maybe I just need an honest opinion or two. :P

They are. I have always used dechlorinators designed for aquariums, with no ill effect. Also I don't think you can overdose all that easily. Just for the record I use Tetra's dechlorinator.

That is what I also use, for my fish anyhow. I've got Reptisafe for my frog- I compared them a couple hours ago.

Tetra AquaSafe- Sodium Hydroxymethane Sulfinate, Chelating compounds, polyvinyl pyrollidones, Seaweed bipolymers, organic hydrocolloids.

Zoo-Med Reptisafe- Water, dechloraminating agent, synthetic organic polymers (colloids) Chelating agent, Electrolytes.

Zoo-med is supposed to stimulate slime coat production. After reading the ingredients it seems more like Gatorade for herps

It certainly does.
