Melanophryniscus Stelzneri Calling

One of my favorite parts of the frog hobby is the music made by these amazing animals. When I'm having an off day, there is nothing more soothing than sitting in the frog room and listening to all the inhabitants talk to each other. The Melanophryniscus Stelzneri definitely have one of the best calls in the room.

Tests, tests, and more tests - Pumilio Bastimentos red and Loma Estrella

I took the new red Basti and Loma Estrella in for tests on Monday. These were the frogs I was most worried about in the new set as the Basti had a questionable worm in the first round of tests and the Lomas weren't even testable. All results were negative. I don't know if it was the Panacur or that these frogs never had anything parasitic. I may never know. Either way, I'm a bit relieved. All frogs went into planted temp tubs and will get another round of tests before moving into permanent homes.
Here are a couple rudimentary photos for now.
