A froggie miracle...

I finally saw Mr. Peepers after practically tearing the aquarium apart. He is emaciated and looks terrible. Being the most shy, he doesn't eat as much and even though I have been trying to put the food near him, it's obvious he's not good at sniffing out his food.

So, I moved Mr. Peepers into a separate little "sick bay" container with a little sea shell in it. I am putting the food in the shell so he will learn to go to this shell. He chowed down pretty quickly in the "sick bay." I am going to plump him up and then transfer both him and the shell into the original tank and see if he will continue to eat from the shell, and thus, be better able to forage for his food.
