Question 1

So fish don't eat this, do you need to use a turkey baster to put this right in front of the frog? Or is that only for blackworms/bloodworms?

Accepted Answer

I will tell you exactly what I do. I have three frogs, and four mollies (fish). I have small rocks on the bottom and I make a small space about the size of a pancake where there are no rocks at all and I take a pinch of the frog pellets and place them in the middle. Its really easy for the frogs to find and easy for them to eat because there are no rocks around. After I place the food for them, I then feed the mollies to distract them and prevent them from eating the frog food. I guarantee it.

Question 2

How often and how many do you feed 1 frog?

Accepted Answer

We have 1 African Water Frog that was adopted THREE YEARS AGO! as a free tadpole from a first-grade science experiment.  That "free" tadpole has already cost me over $100. First for the small tank when it outgrew the mason jar.  Then for the 3-gallon tank with filter and light and pretty princess decorations.  Then we found out Diva was actually a Divo when it started singing.  Now in the evenings at our house, shortly  after the commotion of dinner is done, we hear the frog singing and it sounds nice.  Then my wife reminds me that these things can live longer than 15 years!  About 1/8-1/4 tsp once per day in the evenings.

Question 3

Does this get mushy and cloud up the tank? i  had that problem with reptomin floating food sticks. i don't want the same problem. thanks.

Accepted Answer

It does not cloud up the tank much. It does get mushy if food is left in the water, but it mostly stays as pellets. I fed my tadpoles too much, the leftovers got moldy and killed almost all of my tadpoles. I don't think it's necessarily the food's fault, but you should be careful, don't feed them too much.

Question 4

Can african dwarf frogs eat minnows?

Accepted Answer

Idk I think my tadpoles/young frogs ate some of the other tadpoles in the tank… The mature one is only half an inch of tiny green cuteness. I’ve been told frogs will eat anything.
