sick frog. :(

[willowthepoet]

for the last couple days i've noticed one of my ADFs kinda just floating at the top of the water and not moving until i touch him (i only have done this twice, once when i first saw him and thought he was dead, and again today for same reason).

today i just noticed that one of his eyes is also red, so i'm thinking it could be an infection, so i want to get the others out of there, except that i don't have anywhere to put them besides in with my healthy guppies or my precious honey gouramis (not an option)

advice? should i leave him in there and possibly risk the others, or put him in a separate container (it would have to be tupperware or something of that nature since i don't have any spare or QT tanks)

i'm so worried! my froggies are my babies.

I would take him out and isolate him. I not sure what to treat him with, maybe melafix.

Quarantine and go with a broad-spec antibiotic.

he died this morning. i'm giving melafix to the rest of the tank just to be safe.

RIP. i'm sorry.

That might not have been part of the disease he had, many ADF's do that and i've heard it referred to as the "Zen position" my frogs do it on occasion when they're so lazy they just sit there so they dont have to come up to breathe air so they just stick their noses out of the water. Sorry to hear about your loss though
