HaHa... Don't you feel sorry for the female? Mine used to try all kinds of aerobatics to make him let go to no avail. I can see how her eyes could become injured, even by her using her back flippers to try and get him off. Your frogs are lucky to be getting the very best of care from you ALX... any ...

ALX~ I'm happy to hear that your frogs are ok and amplecting is certainly a good sign. It's been a long time since I had my ADF's, but I remember that it is not good to add salt to their water?
