Cat, you can use backyard rocks or rock collection rocks, but make sure you wash everything really well in HOT water, no soap. Also, put a few drops of vinegar on the rock - if it bubbles, you might not want to put it in the tank, since it might react chemically with the water.

Excellent! Thanks for the tips, I'll definately do that : )
What's going on??
I dunno. I'll ask.
WhHHaaAAAAAAAATTTs GooiiiNGG OooON?!
What's he saying?
This one's a little trickier... He's either saying, 'it's time to move to the back of the throat' or, he wants a strawberry float.

Mine get along well with my betta too, in fact the frogs are more curious about the betta than he is about them <img src="/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />
Cat, what do you feed yours? I tried sinking pellets but they wouldn't eat them. Now I'm feeding frozen brine shrimp.
Also, one of my frogs is missing a hand-not sure if he was injured as a tadpole, or if they have a lot of genetic defects. Does anyone know?

LOL Emg that's kinda what I was thinking. I don't have any frogs although I admit they do look really cute. Between being hard to feed them I am worreid about their safety as well as the fins on my bettas. mine sorta just have each other swimming where they can see or right next to them sometimes ..in separate tanks...I think I might put my 2 females in with the 2 1/2 tanks with the first 2 males I got some time today with the dividers just to kinda see what happens.

I just picked up two froggie pets for my bettas today.. <img src="/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" /> I have no idea what to expect, but I put one in with my steel female and one in with "Patriot". So far Patriot took a couple of swipes at it but not serious ones. Frog looks ok. The female hasn't paid much attention to hers so far. Have to see how it goes...but after putting them in these particular tanks..I was wondering..do these frogs need to be in a heated tank? Because the ones I put them in are not. I was going to put one in with my Teal female..but the temp hovers around 86..which is fine for Teal but I'm not sure if it is ok for a frog. Anyone know? Emg <img src="/images/graemlins/cool.gif" alt="" />

I love my little froggies! They are so cute and the bettas just ignore them now. The funny thing was that I got 2 otos on Saturday, put one into each tank, and the frog in Sweetie's tank immediately went over to get romantic!  They have similar markings, but since then oto has been staying as far away as possible from the frog. :music: The one in Pinky's tank just hangs out, then suddenly hops around. I don't see them eat like Jilly said, but the gravel is very clean now. <img src="/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

Emg,
My frogs are ok in the non heated tanks with my bettas, the water in the tank at the store was heated, so I think they're adaptable. :kiss:

Emg, don't worry about the heat. These guys alwaus seem sto adapt to whatever they are thrown into. Cute buggers. Also, someone was worried about them eating...like I said, I never see mine eat, and I know they do.
All, If you tried to get the largest frogs possible, it's a better bet that your betta will leave them alone (after a bit of curiousity at first). The littlest ones might be harrassed at times, whcih is why they will need a rock or cave of their own.

Is there any way to tell if I have girl or boy frogs? I suspect the one in Sweetie's tank is a boy. :rolleyes:
I guess I'm wondering if it's possible to breed them. Any thoughts?
LOL I know I'm crazy. Couldn't keep betta fry alive, but I'm thinking of the frogs. . .
