Tips to improve the keeping of your African Dwarf Frog

Welcome to the amazing world of the African Dwarf Frog. Free tips about keeping African Dwarf Frogs. Lots of African Dwarf Frog news and much much more on African Dwarf Frogs, your home and family and pet home.

I'm squeamish about feeding my African Dwarf Frog, you say!

Your African Dwarf Frog does not do much foraging for their food. Their food tends to get lost easily in the gravel or sand. They probably won't find their food if it's not in front of their faces.
Remember, they are bottom feeders, (just like your Cory catfish, except their method of finding food is to search the bottom with their sensory barbels) and their eyesite is not good.

One of the best ways of feeding your African Dwarf Frog is in a small terra cotta plate, which you can buy at most craft stores for a small amount.

Place the plate under their small terra cotta pot, making sure that it is secure. You can then put their food in a small bowl of water and using a turkey baster, draw it up and then squirt it out slowly onto the small terra cotta plate in their tank.

This method allows them to find their food much easier and they can then fill themselves up.
Easy, if you know how!
