I'm really sorry about your frog.
I've been in contact with a few people and no one has mentioned chlorine in tap water being able to kill the fungus, that's why bleach is used to sterilize everything that may have come in contact with an infected frog.
I posted in your thread, if you had him for 9 months, from the symptom you desribe, I doubt he died of the fungus.

If you plan on getting another frog, there's an attached document in the first post that gives instructions on how to treat the fungus, even if it doesn't show symptoms, you can use it as a preventative measure, it won't harm the frog.

cool thank you! I glad it probably wasnt that disease cause I would have felt really bad if I contaminated the environment.

Isnt bleach just a much higher concentration of chlorine?

Lucy

I'm not a chemist, but I know they're similar, someone else would have to answer that for you.

Bleach is more or less pure chlorine.

Anyway, I had two adfs, but one died 3 weeks ago. As long as the remaining one lives, can I safely assume it wasn't because of the fungus?

Lucy

I'm sorry to hear you've lost your little frogger.

Did he have symptoms of the fungus? How long did you have them proir to that one's passing?

This is just a guess, but if you've had the remaining one for over 2 months and he's not showing any signs of the fungus I think it would be safe to assume it wasn't from that. Depending on the other one's symptoms, of course.

I bought them around July or August. When I was around my tank I didn't notice any weird behavior. But I have been living in two places recently. I'd have to ask the person who takes care of them during the week to be sure.

I really think he starved since the tank wasn't given any food for a week. I also lost two other fish that weekend too. That's why I'm not really afraid right now. I do want to be sure though.

Lucy

They can be sensitive to water conditions and since you lost 2 fish at the same time and you've had him for that long, he's probably ok.
I'm far from an expert but I think if he had the fungus, you'd see symptoms by now.

I agree w/ Lucy. If there were conditions that caused you to loose fish, I would say you are in the clear w/ the fungus.

I'm pretty sure this is what got my Jethro. Poor little guy. At least there's no other frogs for him to infect, and that it doesn't infect fish, otherwise I'd be in trouble! I bought him from the same tank as my cories, and he was in the other tank with the rest of my bettas, so I would've lost all of my bettas, cories, and my pleco! So yeah, glad to hear fish can't catch it.
