African Dwarf Frogs have gone missing

[Duzz_30]

HI I have 2 African dwarf frogs in my tank but they appear to have gone missing, I have checked my filter and they are not inside there and also I can see in almost every hiding spot in my tank, is it possible they have buried themselves underneath the gravel at the bottom? this is my tank and I have also looked in the plant and trunk at the back I don't know where they could have gone

I highly doubt they buried themselves since they need to breathe air.

That's what I thought but I haven't seen the come to the surface all day, also I've checked to see if they have managed to jump out and no sign of them there either

david1978 is correct. If they're in there, and alive, they'll need to come to the surface periodically to breathe. If you stake out the surface you should see them coming up- hope they're all right. Keep in mind it's sometimes difficult to keep ADFs with fish because the fish out compete them for food and you have to make sure they're eating. Fish tend to be aggressive eaters that seek out food, while ADFs are foragers and count on occasionally 'bumping into' food.

lol better start looking, Had a friend who would get new frogs just to go looking for them in the house although unsure if they were ADF
