    my frogspawn closes up like that when the lighting switches from actinics to moonlights. i would be cautious but dont worry too much.

    what i do is i use clean 1 gallon milk containers and keep them in the garage. i heat them up by putting them on my water change station which is at 80 degrees.

    i actually made a video on it. just stock up on containers. room temperature in my house is pretty close to the temp of my tank, so i dont really need to heat it. even if its a few degrees off, it doesnt really matter because its only a small amount and its dissipating through my sump first.

    +1 to adam. your house is probably 75ish and your tank a little higher. as long as you don't dunk the whole cart on in at the same time it won't be an issue. just keep the 1g jug right by the tank.:D

    i would do some research on tissue rescission for your froggy.

    Cool, i think thats what ill be doing. Ill be collecting milk cartons and hopefully store 5-6 in my closet.

    Im just assuming the frog was mad about the salinity. We have fixed it and its around 23-24. If it is still pissed after, ill have to investigate more. Pics of the new additions. You guys DEF need to get duncans and hammers...SO COOL[​IMG][​IMG][​IMG]
