ACF=African Clawed Frog (Xenopus)

Hi,

Last night I purchased a fully grown female ACF ( I beleive laiden with eggs) and trasfered it to my 29 gallon tankwith my male who has been calling for days. The locked in aplexus and where dancing the last I saw.



2 hours later, she was gone. Litterally diassapeared. I am now doubting the sanity of myself and If I didn't have the receipt, would think I never bought her. The thing is, she was HUGE. I don't know how that big of a frog could get out and them move so fast. I have put down bowls of water everywhere to no avail. I am so mad, I just really don't know why. I guess becuase it was such a waste of my time to go get her and the fact I know I'll never find another in that good of condition.



PLEASE any help woould be awesome right now. Like Tips/tricks, where you found yours when it escaped, did it live? *sigh* I think I'm going to cry.
