Guide to proper ADF care

In the U.S. they are banned in most states.

I just read through all ninety-six pages of this thread... What a read! A good one, though! Very informative, and it's nice to hear the odd situations people experience with these guys, how they deal with them and what they learn. I would really, really love to get one of these little guys. He would either be in my community tank and hand fed or in his own three to five gallon. It depends on if I can find a tank the right size for cheap! My only problem is my mother. Even though all my animals are my complete responsibility both care-wise and financially, she refuses to even talk about letting me get one.
I wish I knew why she's doing that. Something about having a limit to the freedom I can have. I just don't get it! Oh well. Hopefully one day, she'll let me... I love seeing everyone's pictures, and I'm so sorry for the losses a few of you have experienced...

Same problem with my parents too.

Atleast I get 30 gallons of water.

Well, wow! You read ALL of it, lol?! Oddly enough, I've come across a few people who are actually TERRIFIED of frogs. Even teeny tiny have-to-stay-underwater frogs. . . maybe your mom is one of those? Regardless of her reasons why, at least you know that you'll be prepared when the day comes (and I'm sure it will!) Good luck!!!

In Florida I could catch them with my hands.

ACFs are different than ADFs ;) African Clawed Frogs vs African Dwarf Frogs.

Oh, and I've finally moved! Well... kind of. I got the go-ahead yesterday to start moving into my new place. Today I moved all my tanks in. Since I don't have all of my stuff here (most of it is back at my parents house, since it wouldn't fit in my last apartment), 3 of my tanks will have to stay half-empty. However, Tintri and my frogs are all set up! When I actually have a tolerable internet connection, I'll definitely upload pictures. Skinny isn't so skinny anymore either :D No armpit pimples, so still not sure what Skinny will be.

Oops, lol well both are legal in my state lol

And congrats on having a move done! My ex was in the army so we used to move every like 6 months to a year...it drove me nuts! I finally ended up making movers come in and do it all
