Healthy frog dead within 2day.

[Crazy frog]

Hi guys,

I had a breeding pair of leuco , but today I found the female dead and it was very bloated when I found it today. The day before yesterday she was still feeding and yesterday I found her restless bloated, so I though she was having a large clutches of eggs as she used to lay 3-9eggs every 5-7days and it had been going for at least 5months. But the last 2 weeks It havnt been laying any eggs. I feed my adult frog with pinhead everyday, about an average of 15pcs of 1-3mm pinhead into a tank for each frog inside as one of the reason I feed more is that some pinheads may go hiding another is they are keep in a room that is between 27-29 degree C. What do you guys think, I over feed her, she may had ate something that she can't digest or too big pinheads or other cause?

Tank temp is 27-28max ..I don't think is the temp as they been living in that temp for 1 year and my other pairs of frogs are still ok.

Nope tanks temps are fine. did you get her when she was a froglet?

Are you using supplements with the pinheads? Which ones?

I wouldn't rule out temperature just yet if the room is getting 26-29 the tank is most likely getting at least that temperature, but most likely even higher. While leucomelas can handle some higher temperatures than most frogs if you tank is constantly getting up to 29 or 30 degrees C than this could definitely have caused the death.

When i got her 1 year ago , she was 1years old+...


My tank misting system water has a chiller to chill the water to 23 degree C and the misting is set to mist every 1hour to cool the tank and it also fans blowing to cool the tank.

Sorry to hear of the loss of your frog. Sometimes there is no reason. I would think that if you have had this frog for over a year without incident, there would have to be some either unusual conditions or a natural limitation. Maybe egg bound or some parasite.

Gosh!!! 2nd female dead from another tank! Same thing bloated stomach... I need help before it kill all my frogs.
I am supplementing reapshy calcium plus icb daily and ones a week I add supervite and superpig .
Changes in my tank recently that I found small snails and small reddish brown spider which came with the crickets living in their tank and been trying to get rid of them manually since then . I had also cut down the feeding from daily now to every other day to prevent over feeding .

can you post pictures of your tank?
I assume you live somewhere where fruit flies are not an option. Is that correct?
