My 9 year old African Clawed Frog, Flipper has not been eating. He is spending much of his time at the top of the tank. He has no skin blemishes or redness, but he is shedding more than usual. He does this every year at different times of the winter.
Other information:
He lives in a 25 gallon tank with a Rubber Lipped Plecostomus
Flipper has limb deformities and must be hand fed
He eats Reptomin Floating food sticks
His water is 76 degrees

What is wrong with my frog?

    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?
