Default K30: Dwarf Frog Dead??

Thanks for the quick reply. I feel somewhat better knowing that they only
live up to 5 yrs. I'm fairly certain that he got his share of food as I
watched for that but I appreciate your comment as I could see it would look
like a possible reason. I would feel awful if I thought I starved him. He
was a male and smaller than the other one who is female. They did the
tadpole thing once. I'm pretty sure he is dead. I'll wait until tonight and
bury him. Thinking ahead, I wonder if I should quarantine then add another
froggie for my single one. The cory catfish thinks its a frog so its not as
if she will be entirely alone.
Thanks again for the advice. I 'loved' that frog.

Sounds like he is not long for the world.
They can live up to five years.
If the other one if fat and sassy and this fellow has always been thin I

wonder
if he has been getting his fair share of the food.
I have three in a large cookie jar type container. I usually sprinkle the

food
in three separate places. So far, so good.
But I did have two in a smaller container and I think one of them died

because
of food hogging by the other.
