I have a leopard frog that appeared to throw up. He than started jumping spastically all over his tank. Now he is lying on top of a rock with his back legs sticking straight out behind him and his mouth slightly open? Is he dead? What is going on?

I think he might be choking , I had leopard frogs once. I lost them to some kind of weird residue , I suspected that thing was on the bucket lid from the place I bought wingless fruit flies from. I think he ate that and then he start to act somewhat weird then he threw up , next day I found him laid flat at the bottom tank dead. I shouldn't put the whole bucket of fruit flies culture in his tank with just poking hole through it, but I didn't know it would have turned out this way. I just wanna give him long term food supply but it didn't work out as i hope . :(:(:(

    with axolotls would I basically have to keep buying and buying new axolotls to prevent inbred breeding which costs a lot of money??

    Not necessarily but if you’re wanting to continue to grow your breeding capacity then yes. Breeding axolotls isn’t a cheap hobby nor is it a get rich quick scheme. It costs a lot of money and time and deditcation

    Would Chinese fire belly newts be more or less inclined towards an aquatic eft set up versus Japanese . I'm raising them and have abandoned the terrarium at about 5 months old and switched to the aquatic setups you describe. I'm wondering if I could do this as soon as they morph?
