Joani, my 9 year old daughter, discovered a wee skinny frog floating on its back in her tank this morning.

Cue drama queen sadness before school...

Just went in to check on it (I moved it to a seperate tub and put food in to try and encourage it to feed) and theres another wee skinny one belly up.

Scooped & flushed and hoping she doesnt notice! Am just gonna tell her the 3 massive frogs ate it :\

Gah Im a bad mum!

Is there other frogs in there?

If two have died of same symptoms so closely together I would worry about a disease.

Might be a good idea to keep an eye on the others and place them in a sterile environment until you know what's causing it

What type of frogs are they?

Thank you Kaz... they are African Dwarf frogs. The 2 of them that died were tiny, and skelatol....where as the other 3 are huge, eating well and looking fine. They were all the same size when she was given them on her birthday xxx
