Rhea Posted January 25, 2010 Report Share Posted January 25, 2010 I have new Johannii fry released into one of my tanks. This tank has always been a fry tank, but sat empty for a while. My 6 year old son begged me for an aquatic frog to add to it. Now I have a female releasing and have noticed her smashing into the frog to keep him away. I normally feed the frog blood worms. I am now thinking he may eat the fry. Does anyone know? Just to be safe I have temporarily rehomed him to my grow out tank. He is hiding so I have no idea if he will get very far in there. Any help or advise is appreciated Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wingin' It Posted January 25, 2010 Report Share Posted January 25, 2010 You definately might want to rehome that frog...frogs are gluttens...they will eat anything and everything! They're definatley cool to watch sometimes though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taurus Posted September 18, 2013 Report Share Posted September 18, 2013 My rule of thumb is if it will fit in it's mouth, it will be eaten. Frogs generally has a wide mouth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am surprised that the frog has survived the adult cichild....they may be gluttons, but the dwarf frogs cannot defend themselves against much.
