Froggie Hang Out


This is a 5 gallon plastic ("pals pens" or something similar) tank (I don't think it honestly holds 5 gallons). It's been occupied by a number of my fish when they were smaller, but right now, everyone has graduated to larger tanks and it is inhabited by my african frog (Xenopus laevis. I feed it an occasional earth worm, but it lives mostly on AquariYums and other pelleted fish food. I was hoping he (I think it's a he, because he croaks at night, and has black "palms" on his hands, as if he was getting conditioned to breed) would grow faster, but so far, he's only about 1.5" from snout to bum. I suspect that he needs more meat in his diet, but being a vegetarian, I don't come across actual meat very often. We'll see.


Would you like to go back to my home page, or back to the list?
