can I add in Amano shrimp with tetras and ADF? will the ADF eat the shrimp?
Take the bubbler out. The bubbles can upset frogs guts
Could I only keep one frog if i have several fish in the tank?
I have a 5gl tank w a ADF. I was thinking of getting either a beta or 3 guppies WITH 2 small snails for cleaning.... is that possible?
They will attack the snails
hello ik this video is old but if you see this i have some questions. I just got a 20 gallon tank and i’m thinking of getting ADF and other fish. i want to know, how often should i clean it, are ADFs active and fun to watch, and can i have a sucker fish. I would also like to know if ADFs can go on a complete blood work diet or if they need a frog pellet instead.
I miss my younger days of ranchu keeping, never got a chance to keep african dwarf frogs 🤔
I've had 15 now and all of them haven't lived past 2 months, some lasting less then a week, they float at the top barely moving then they die soon after, my tank is a 10 gallon and it's just them according to several experts I'm not doing anything wrong, they die mostly after a water change but I use special amphibian water conditioner before hand as recommended by an expert, Please help! I don't understand what's wrong!
Are you testing the water for ammonia, nitrites, and nitrates? The froggies are sensitive so you'll want a fully cycled tank
Yes everything is testing completely normal
Hey, I was just curious if someone could help me out, my one frog is rather skinny and is always floating at the top. Sources say that means he is 1 to 2 days away form death- but he's been doing this for a good month. Can anyone help me?
Did he die? They love to sunbath and are active in the night mostly.
@@Katherine_xs At this point, he is sadly dead
I’m thinking about getting some and I was wondering if they need fish in the tank
They can be put with certain types of fish- but I do not think it's required.
this is cool bruh
where’d u get ur rocks
I got them from petsmart/co. I mixed a 5lb blue gravel bag and a 5lb pink gravel. I am planning on changing out to a more natural look. I will probably use aquarium sand.
Can you do a frog setup video please love from Bangladesh
Yes! I'm working on creating new content. <3
How often do u feed them an how much
Depends on what you feed them. In this video i use aquatic frog and tadpole pellets, and if you are using this i would do a small pinch of food (make sure it sinks so push it down) every other day. I have a video on my channel about this.
i forgot to mention about the singing. the males do. the very first time I heard this I had no idea where it was coming from because it's almost a low hum but with a high pitch, I don't know. I can't explain it. It's something you would have to hear to understand. lol Sometimes I can barely hear it , as other times it's all I can hear even when I am trying to not listen lol. Right now my males have been singing for 2 days straight. I think it's because of the nice weather? I have three females and two males. at this point. I keep them all together in one tank. However, I've heard from some people, not sure if they are correct or not, but they mentioned to me that the African dwarf frogs can and like to be alone in the tank. I have noticed that they enjoy the company of other frogs. but like I've said, this is just my own experience and what I have encountered over the years..
About a year ago, when I got my male ADF (Rudy <3) I heard a humming noise in the middle of the night. I got up, and I was so confused because I honestly didn't know that they did that because I had only had females, so I had never heard it. I went back to bed because it was 3:00am, so I researched and found out what the noise was. I heard him again the night after and recorded it, and I might make a video on that, but the only problem is that it was pitch black, so you can't see him in the video I took. I think it was the temperature of the water because I checked to try and see what caused it, and the water temperature was 83. I know that toads/frogs have mating calls in late spring/early summer because my neighbor has a pond, and I can hear the frogs at night. Sometimes its Really loud xD
I have had African dwarf frogs for many years now. some have lived for a year as others live much longer. i have a female who has lived since the very first time i got some. she breed many times. however i haven't had much luck getting the tad poles to live long enough to lose their tales , they always die right before that stage for some reason? I have tried many different ways and different mates and no luck yet. One thing i have noticed about the females apart from the males(besides checking the tail nub) is that the males tend to be smaller around the belly and have longer thicker arms, as the females tend to be more on the round shape with short more skinnier arms. that has just been what I've noticed from my African dwarfs over the years. also, I'm pretty sure that they can change from mail to female and vice versa. I don't think I have ever experienced that with mine, however I have came across this in my research. One last thing, I'm not sure if all African dwarf frogs need their food pushed on the bottom. I've have had my frogs do both eat from the bottom and come right to the top as it floats. I tapped my cage very lightly and they know it's time to eat. they will come right up and pretty much eat from my hand. lol it is hilarious. however, this is only my experience I've shared and I'm sure it it could be different from others experiences.
Thank you for sharing your experience with ADF. I absolutely love my frogs and my female I have had her for a year and my male for two years. I had another female two years ago that sadly passed away. I never knew that they could change genders! You learn something new every day ;D
They are NOT safe with bettas!!! The frogs will bite and tear at the betta fish's fins. I know from first-hand experience. I only cohab with ADULT neocaridina shrimp and mystery snails. Please don't put a betta in with ADF's. Their flowing fins are too tempting to the frogs. It's a terrible idea.
You must have had a bad experience because I've had probably 5 bettas my entire life with frogs and I have never had that happen. I've heard it before but I think its if you have really aggressive frogs, so when you first get a betta/frog you have to monitor their behavior rally close. This point is states in many reliable websites and other RUclips video. Do your research :)
I would also suggest mysis shrimp and beefheart , I heard blood worms can lead to bloat in frogs :)
Yes, I've defiantly heard that before, and I only give blood worms to them every once in while as a treat and I think the last time I gave some to them was around September-November of last year. Also thanks for the comment the video only came out about an hour ago <3
Can the tadpoles survive solely on powdered fish fry food until they become froglets?
I'm not 100% sure because I've never had them before, but they probably could but you can buy large packs of brine shrimp for cheap and that would help them grow big and strong. you can also buy brine frozen shrimp.
I’m so sorry ❤❤
Thank you
I want to get 3 ADF but I’m not sure if I want to risk them breeding. But I don’t know if it would be okay for me to have all female or all male
It would definitely be ok to have all females/males together! I would also like to add that breeding is very hard to do and probably won't just happen without you lowering the water level and making the water warmer.
the male will eat the eggs if you don’t isolate them
i have african dwarf and albino frog, male and female and they have tried for babies and they live with catfish’s and gold fishes
That's so cool! I would be careful with the gold fish because if you have a big enough tank the gold fish will grow large and they will eat anything that will fit in their mouth.
I have loaches as well so feed them all beta sinking pellets.
That's a great idea!
My frogs eat at the top. So whatever.
Oh that must be nice I’ve tried to get min to eat at the top but they are so stubborn.
@@auggiesaquarium9120 I have freeze dried blood worms that float. Whenever I'd see the frogs floating,I'd throw a couple by them and they learned to eat at the top that way. They l forage on the bottom still,but k now that the good stuff is at the top.
What would they do if they were alone
They might be fine but they live in groups in the wild so they might get lonely. I yo used to have one frog but I realized that they live best together. Also make Sure your tank isn’t too crowded if you want to get another one.
your spelling and syntax inspires me
Thank you!
I am getting 2 of these frogs and I was wondering if they can breath oxygen and if it’s okay to take them out of the tank in your hand Oh and another thing was about their water. Do they use regular tap water or something else
They do breathe oxygen but you can't touch them or take them out of the water. This will kill the frogs. You have to ensure you have a lid because if they jump out, it will kill them as well. And for your other question, you can use tap water but you have to use a water conditoner because there are sometimes harmful chemicals in tap water that can hurt your frogs. Here is the like to the one I use: www.amazon.com/API-CONDITIONER-Aquarium-Conditioner-16-Ounce/dp/B004LO9KSY/ref=sr_1_4?crid=3JCVCJLB9T0DN&keywords=declinator+for+fish+tank&qid=1657459775&sprefix=declinator+for+fish+tank%2Caps%2C98&sr=8-4
@@auggiesaquarium9120 thank you so much!
@@animalshorts8722 Anytime! 🐠🐠🐠🐸🐸🐸
@@auggiesaquarium9120 Sorry one more question. When cleaning their water, do you take the frogs out and put them in a separate container with water or do you leave them in the tank since they breath oxygen
@@animalshorts8722 What size tank do you have?
I was so mean how terrible. A very cute video and I like the music. I bet it's a Happy frog. They are hard to take care of and die easy. Good job girl!
LOL, I made this tank before I had any males but once you have gravel in there is very hard to change it because of the biological bacteria. I don't have the small plants in there anymore I now have large real plants that give my frogs plenty of cover. Also, I turn the lights off at about 6:00 pm every day so they don't have the bright lights 24/7
They are pretty blind😂 if u think they care
@@auggiesaquarium9120can you house African dwarf frogs with gold fish and can you touch them with gloves
I have a 3 gallon im gonna get 2 frogs. Would that be ok? And how often do i clean my tank? Subbed btw!
Thanks for the sub!! I think two frogs in a three-gallon will be okay if you clean it maybe once a week or every other week, but if you have other fish, I would recommend cleaning it every week.
@@auggiesaquarium9120 i will only have frogs but ty! Im upgrading to a 5 gallon
No problem. If you have a five-gallon with frogs only, you should clean it every other week.
@@auggiesaquarium9120 alr i love your vids btw! Hope to see more in the future
Why wipe the Alge?
Some people get false information that algae is good for your tank but this is false info. Algae is very bad for your fish tank and it can give harmful diseases to your fish and frogs.
@@auggiesaquarium9120 can you back up this info
@@Just_A_Girl2015Sure. The algae its self is not bad, but it causes your water to have poor quality, and having clean water in your tank can make your fish & frogs sick.
You forgot to talk
No, I actually didn't. I get very shy when I talk to strangers, so I don't really like to put my voice on RUclips.
heaven gained an angel 🙏🏻 🐸 xxx i’m sorry for your los. 🥺💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻
Thank you so much! I miss Trevor very much but I'm sure she is happy where she is. I now have another female frog named Luna. 💗💗💗🐸🐸🐸
thank you getting one soon! do you have any videos on how to set up the tank?
Not yet but I am working on new videos soon. Sorry.
Good job :)
Thank you so much! 😀😀😀
What size tank do you have. Also what roommates do you have with your African dwarf frog?
I have a ten-gallon tank and I have Guppies and Balloon belly Mollies
I've had mine since January and I went to feed them and seen it looked like one was choking the other and looked it up and guess they were mating lmao 🤣
That's happened to me before. 😂😂😂
Getting 2 platinum ADF tomorrow can’t wait 😝
Ooo hope you get a good and healthy one
Im so sorry about your frog :(
Thank you so much :(
@@auggiesaquarium9120 sorry man I have kept dwarf frogs in the past they die off so quickly was not your fault.
@@auggiesaquarium9120 also did you move any sponges from previous filter or any plants or stones from previous into this tank ? The lack of beneficial bacteria could of killed them. The beneficial bacteria to Ammonia ratio could of caused ammonia spike sorry for long message
Thanks for the information! this channel is SO underrated! I already have a snail named Sheldon, and I plan on getting another. any suggestions for me?
Thank you so much! Just know that snails breed a lot. other then that, just care for the snail the same way you care for sheldon. (i love that name btw)
@@auggiesaquarium9120 when mine were alive they would breed a lot but my sucker fish would eat all the eggs so when they died from age the sucker fish had ate all of the babies and I never got a baby snail
@@PlutotheElf Hi! thanks for the comment. I would recommend puting them in a differnent tank away from the fish so that way they dont get eaten.
it's underated cos it's terrible, utube is spammed up with this shite !
Thank you this is really helpful
Your welcome!
Jag älskar dvärgklogrodor
ja! jag också!! haha jag var tvungen att använda google translate för att svara! jag pratar engelska
Hello I just got my two drawn frogs, and I’m will randomly freeze in place and not move in till you look away from them and they don’t move around much is this normal? (. I got them about 2 days ago)
Yes. This is normal. They are less active in the day so they might actually be sleeping.
Oki thank you!
@@Goofy_therian No problem!
what an excellent video and cute froggies 🐸
Thank you so much!!! I am doing a new video soon about poor Trevor. She got bloated and passed away. 😔
I don’t have a lid and my frogs never jump out! Just down fill the tank all the way. Leave a gap of two 11/2-2 inches. I have plants that stick out of the water so I never got a lid
Please put a lid on your tank. Just because it’s never happened doesn’t mean that it can’t.
@@DustyHoney I agree 💯%
@@DustyHoneyMy results for 2 years, no one squeaked out simply because my filter makes a “stream”
they shouldnt jump out even with a lid off if the water is clean and healthy thats like the last thing they want to do
Hey I have a 5 gallon tank with a in built heater and filter I was wondering since they have lungs and I have a filter do they still not a air stone
they don't require an air stone, but they would be happier with one.
Thankyou for the video ,subscribed!!
I forgot to add in the video that African dwarf frogs live 5-8 years.
