a dwarf African frog site

I have also included a page on chytrid fungus (Read This First).  If you are going to keep these frogs, you MUST know about this threat.

Once you've read this site and are ready for more information, here are other Dwarf African Frog sites that you may enjoy:

This is a link to an excellent Yahoogroups DAF e-mail group: http://pets.groups.yahoo.com/group/DwarfAfricanFrogs/

...and a great group for fanciers of ACFs and DAFs: http://pets.groups.yahoo.com/group/FroggyFriends/?yguid=61197695

Here's a great NEW DAF site: http://frogworld.net/african-dwarf-frog

Here's a link to an amusing page.  While we don't agree 100% on how to take care of dwarf African frogs (and who could expect 100% agreement on any aquarium-related subject?), the writer knows frogs and has a friendly and wildly funny writing style: http://allaboutfrogs.org/info/mypets/dwarfs.html

It wouldn't be a links page without Wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/African_dwarf_frog

Here's another good basic information page: http://www.bookrags.com/wiki/African_dwarf_frog

This is a page that you've no doubt already come across in searching for info on the dwarf African frog on the Web: http://davidcecere.pipidae.org/

Another good basic site about the dwarf African frog: http://leilanimassage.com/frogjournal.htm

A frog care and message board site: http://www.flippersandfins.net/

A site with information on a wider range of aquatic frogs: http://www.pipidae.net/

Another wide-ranging page on aquatic frogs: http://aquaticfrogs.tripod.com/

Finally -- and totally off topic -- my new page on seahorse care: http://aquatichorse.webs.com/

As of February 4, 2009, the Forum and Guestbook pages have been removed from this site.  The reasons for this action are many. 

The Forum has not been used heavily in recent months, and most of the questions that have arisen have been about frog health.  Too often I could not adequately answer because most of my own frog losses have been due to freak accidents, jump-outs, and chytrid.  Anyone looking for advice on this subject would be much better off joining the Yahoogroup Dwarf African Frogs at http://pets.groups.yahoo.com/group/DwarfAfricanFrogs. 

The Guestbook has, as some of you have noticed, been closed to casual visitors for quite some time.  The reason this happened is that two youngsters started using it as a private playground in which to cyber-bully each other.  That was bad enough, and not to be tolerated -- and then one of them tried to bully me, which I found both sadly amusing and completely unacceptable.  Since there seems to be no way to ban one or two users from the Guestbook, the only way to handle this was to make the Guestbook members-only, which of course meant that no one used it from that point forward.  The lack of use put it first on the elimination list.  I feel bad about this, because I enjoyed reading the comments on that page and appreciated that people took the time to share their thoughts about this site.

Another factor in all this is that I am nearing the limit of my space on Webs.  To get more space this would have to become a premium site, which would mean I would have to beg y'all for money -- which I don't want to do.

The result is that both pages have been deleted.  I apologize for any inconvenience this may cause, and hope you will still find other pages on this site to be useful.  Thanks for your understanding.

Site-owner's note:

I've been considering moving this site to another host, but considering how entrenched it is here, it seems easier to leave it here.  If I do eventually move the site, at some time in the future you may stop by and find a link directing you to a new address, elsewhere.  Be assured it will still be the same old Aquafrog site.

Thank you for your patience.  You have more than I do!
