jflysmooth Posted December 12, 2003 Share Posted December 12, 2003 Okay.. so two days ago my frogspawn started to close up unexplainedly.. I couldnt figure it out. My zoos were all closed too, but the leathers, xenia, and sutff we're fine so I couldnt figure out what was going on. Anyhow, today I made up a tank of fresh saltwater to move the frogspawn in becuase it looked like it was sick. I took it out and then I noticed that I can see the skeleton through where the mouth used to be located. Two days ago this was a THRIVING, HUGE, two headed frogspawn, today, its muck and obviously dying. Any ideas on what happened to it? I swear, nothing in the tank changed. My water is fine, things seem okay. I don't get it. Oh, and I added some carbon to the HOB and today the zoos are all opening again. My current guess is that the frogspawn was dying and thats what ####ed off the zoos. Ugh. Link to comment
Masoch Posted December 12, 2003 Share Posted December 12, 2003 If carbon cleaned it up, the leathers might have declared chemical warfare on the tank. Some things are more affected than others ... Link to comment
southpaw23 Posted December 15, 2003 Share Posted December 15, 2003 i just posted a thread in the beginers forum on this....had the same problem with my frogspawn....day 1 in the tank and it looked like it was doing fine but i woke up the next morning to find it almost fully retracted...what's up with that? i don't have leathers in the tank....only some green mushrooms, zoos and a torch coral which i added at the same time as the frogspawn. water parameters seem fine....don't understand what's up? i suspect that it probably wasn't doing too fine to begin with seeing that when i bought it at the LFS, it had two heads but with one of the head dead so i had the LFS cut off the dead head....but when i placed the frag in my tank....it opened up in less than an hour and seemed to be doing fine.....any ideas?

jflysmooth Posted December 15, 2003 Author Share Posted December 15, 2003 Well I'd had mine for a long time, it was nice and thriving. I luckily have more of it in the 20H at my parents place (thats where I got this frag from months ago) I still don't know what happened to it. I mean, sometimes I've seenthem close up before, but they usually open back up within an hour or so... this one was closed for 2 days and was ####ing off everything else in the tank. Ugh.

cuteios Posted December 21, 2003 Share Posted December 21, 2003 Weird enough my own frogspawn which is only a week old is beginning to act up as well. I've also noticed it has lost a lot of color. Now my zoos didn't open up all day...can anyone shed some light into this little problem? Link to comment
