yeah ill pull out the camera

Thanks alot. Its sad becuase hes real weak and wont move. I think he ate two crickets I had in the cage (I dusted them) because I had three in there and cant find the other two. If I would have know the Rep-Cal i had would I helped, I might not have this problem. But thanks alot guys, I...

No no its not store bought dirt. Its from my petstore and its called bed-a-beast I think. Its this block of dried dirt and you let it soak in water for 30 minutes and it spreads out, breaks up, and is clean good dirt. It holds humidity very well. I dont use any fertilizers or anything that...

Its not about the insects that were in the tank, but the animal itself. I tried to feed him a cricket I covered with calcium powder, but he wouldnt eat it. I even pulled all the legs off of the cricket so it would just kind of wiggle in front of him and its been 5 minutes and he hasnt done...

yes it did thank you. I learned now that its not mites or ticks. What I have would "hop" around. And they wouldnt attach to him ever. They would crawl on him, but not attach. I think its just simply maggots, pretty gross, but im glad its nothing to harmful. But I just changed out the dirt...

im just gonna say an update. I was cleaning out the tank and there were alot of crickets in it, dead, and alive, under the dirt and under this rock thing that is in there. While I was doing this, I put my frog in a bowl with warm aquafina water and he was doing alot better, and moving around...

I dont think its baby crickets. Ive seen them before and it looks nothing like them. I dont think its maggots, but they do seem to gather around his poo and on the dead crickets since he doesnt eat them. What would the ticks and mites do to him? Thank you again

thank you for the reply. I live in southeast Texas and the temp in the tank is around 74-75F and it always has since I had him. The humidity is 80%. I was using calcium powder, but I stopped since it got all over the dirt in his tank. Could that be it? And the water I'm using is tap water...

I have a Whites Dumpy Tree Frog and need help if anyone knows anything about them. I got him about 7 years ago, and he was already an adult when I got him. He's always been acting fine. I would take him out and he would look ok, and move around, but during this past week hes been acting...

sounds like diatoms to me. Its normal for a new tank and will go away when water conditions improve

describe the worms better. Color, size, if/how they move are all important in telling what it is.

oh ok. Thanks alot guys. I dont have my tank up yet, but I did last year and sadly a hurricane took it away. One day I got back on these forums, and got the itch to start it again. This time around will be much better. Thanks alot for the help- Anthony

ha i just realized i didnt really ask a question. My question is what are the benefits of having just a LS bed, not that deep about 1 inch, or doing say 50/50 LS and Dry Sand. Thanks

lol alright i got different opinions here. The bag of LS im looking at is 20 pounds for a 29 gallon.

you can get some nasarius snails to help clean it

oh ok but is it ok to have just a bag of LS in the tank with no other sand or should I mix in some more sand?

alright, but can I add the LR and LS after I put in the water and just start the cycle then?

Bang Guy posted this in another thread I found and want to know if it is necesary for a tank. Im sure it helps, but I just want to know the difference between this, and just putting in LS and LR with a raw shrimp for it to cycle. Thanks-Anthony Posted by Bang Guy: Mix up to 25 gallons of...
