    Sorry can't share good news, but don't think there is a procedure to remove dye. Also, believe the organs that handle filtering and processing functions would be affected worse and as consequence the immune system would be compromised. For example, when the liver encounters a compound it can't process, it stores it to protect the organism. If toxic elements saturate it, it will affect liver functions required for survival. Some of those dyes (like fluorescents) are even toxic to humans so imagine what they will do to a small frog or fish.
    Remember to take care of the enclosure and it will take care of your frog !​

    Yea, I have read that dyed frogs will live a maximum of 5-7 years. It's terrible how selfish and greedy people can be.

    If dyed frogs are anything like dyed fish... if the fish survive the dyeing process, they do continue to live a normal life span, if provided the proper environment. I don't think that it would be any different with frogs. The coloring will fade in time, leaving the natural color (albino). With fish, the faster a fish grows the faster the color fades. Again, I think that it would be the same with forgs.
