	African Dwarf Frogs - how to acclimate?
Vic711 Small Fry Posts: 14 Kudos: 9 Votes: 0 Registered: 02-Jan-2005	So how do I acclimate african dwarf frogs? Just float the bag to adjust the temp for a half hour, then net them in? Or should I slowly add a cup of tank water to the bag every 15 mins?

Like the drip method but i doubt this will be neccesary. A good 30 min float should do it. Try to net him as fast as possible because chasing him around in a bag wont help iwth the already added stress.

I didnt think they needed any acclimation time since they are amphibians. I never lost one, and I dont think they are at all sensitive. Like most frogs, they are tough as nails and twice as smart Come Play Yahtzee With Me! http://games.atari.com Http://www.myleague.com/yahtgames
