Froglets dying. Why ?

Of course. Was it unclear in my posts above regarding this ? If so, my intent is to get the froglets onto dusted FF as soon as possible when their developed mouth-parts will allow. Tincs and 'Tinc type' froglets are big enough to take small melanogaster FF as soon as the tails are gone. I think there may be a misconception that froglets are "tiny" so they must need "tiny" food - hence the springs and this just isn't true.

A double misunderstanding, I offer both ffy's and springs.
Like I said, many different ways to do it.

So no one thinks the last frog looks like it has spindly leg syndrome?

I think it is hard to tell in the photo...but you may be onto something.

Supplementing every feeding is a must and in my opinion, some supplements are better than no supplements. (although I'd recommend Repashy Cal+ for every feeding)

Yes, absolutely, just from that one shot, which could be misleading, but yes.
Which in my experience is genetically active, stress triggered.
Still looking for Q answers and sphagnum too.
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.

anything close to add to the investigation ?

High heat ?

Lack of dusted food ?

Lids too tight / airflow ?

anything ?
