I have had my tank set up for about 6 months now and all of a sudden my two Dwarf African frogs have died and my GSP is acting wierd.
The frogs were small when I bough them and grew really really fast. They were always eating the frozen brine shrimp that floated down to the bottow. I also fed my frogs and fish live brine shrimp and bloodworms. Two weeks ago I found one of my two frogs dead and took him out asap, today the other one has died. My GSP has been acting wierd too. It either sits behind a large rock all day or just sits up at the surface. When its feeding time, its color changes from like a blackish to bright yellow green when it eats and then goes back to just sitting around.
Up until a couple of weeks ago it was always swiming around the tank.
I do 50% water change every week. I have natural plants and a DIY CO2 set up. Not until recently have I started using the fourish supplements. I do not have excel but just the flourish that says its for planted tanks. I started using this about 2-3 weeks ago. Could my frogs and GSP being affected by this. I dose according the bottle.
My fish load is 1 large Gold Angle fish, 1 GSP 2 Otos, 2 Rosy barbs, 1 Ghost knife fish, 1 red tail shark, 7 tiger babs, 1 red tail shark and 2 bala sharks. I have 2 HOB filters that I always keep the clean. My Bio filters are close to a month old but still flow well. I will be changing 1 cartrige out soon and leaving the other so as not to upset the balance in the tank. And changing the other one in a week or two. My PH is around 7.0 and I use my heater and keep the temp around 70-72 degrees.
I heard these frogs live 5 yrs. I used to have an African Clawed frog when I was young and I did not take very good care of him and he lasted 15 yrs, so whats the deal?
Thank you,
Matt
