My last African Dwarf Frog Died this weekend

Posted by Sarah on February 16, 2009

My last African Dwarf Frog died this weekend.

It’s kind of disappointing, but considering that I bought all of them from a place that was starving the frogs, it’s not too unexpected.

That kind of abuse has to take a toll on your body, even if you’re properly taken care of later.

Two or three of the frogs that I got were so skinny that they died within a day after I took them home.

The stress of the move was just too much for them.

It’s a shame that some people don’t know how to take care of the pets they are selling and it’s worse that they often don’t care.

Just because African Dwarf Frogs live in a fish tank, doesn’t mean that they can be treated like fish.

African Dwarf frogs need frog food.

Sure they might last for a little while without it, but sooner or later your bad habits are going to catch up them.

Should they suffer because of your neglect?

Welcome to Northern Lights Aquatics!

My husband and I are addicted to fish!

We currently have angelfish, guppies, platies, black mollies, a breeding pair of bushynose pleco and lots of fry, several types of cories, German Blue Rams,  German Golden Rams, harlequin rasboras, clown plecos, african dwarf frogs, otocinclus, a false siamese algae eater and another unidentified fish that was sold to us as a siamese algae eater.

Do you think we like fish?

In addition to all of those fish we have a salt water aquarium with a yellow tang, and two clownfish.

When people come to visit and see all of the fish tanks they think we’re nuts – but hey, it’s fun, isn’t it?
