Red leg?? Pix

I'm not sure if it is actually red leg. I have no experience in identifying it. Hopefully it is not red leg though because I believe once the signs appear it is fatal and a sad way for a frog to die.

Ack.. sorry about your accident as well. : (

Thank you, I'm doing my best to cope. I feel awful about sucking up their water and everything. I think the best thing to do is give some away. I'm thinking the star of this post will be ok because he's still swimming around, eating and everything. He looks much less red and not bloody anymore. I would think that symptoms would be more severe and keep getting worse if it was red leg. Maybe he had the start of some kind of bacterial problem, but he's healing now that i'm changing his water daily?

Good call. Daily water changes are the best thing to do in your situation until you find a permanent solution.

It is possible the spots are ammonia burns. If that is the case improved water quality will eventually remedy it.

He seems to be almost 100% back to normal, the water changes must be working!
