Is the frog in a group? If so, I would definitely separate it. It might be "bullied" by another frog. Separate it, and feed it daily. If it doesn't put weight on in the next few days, contact Rich Frye.

Hey Steve ,
You can contact my brother through the website.
I would advise a fecal, at the least.
Good luck.
Rich
Darts with parasites are analogous to mixed tanks, there are no known benefits to the frogs with either.
If tone is more important to you than content, you are at the wrong place.

will do and as soon as i can get some stool from him i will get in touch with your brother rich
Are all your other frogs ok? If it is the only frog that is skinny then I wonder how likely it is that it would have a parasite and the other frogs would be spared. How do you know he gets enough to eat?

Is he more active then the other frogs?
