Platanna,

Thank you so much for both your responses. I feel so vulnerable being naive about ACFs. I will try and locate some type of xenopus care groups on Google.

I am sad that s/he is stressed, but I still wonder what might have happened because the frog had not exhibited that behavior for the entire first week I had it (and one day, it start jetting around all of a sudden).

Anyway, the behavior has extremely declined, and there is a temporary frog companion there (which has seemed to (in)directly help in decreasing the frequency of the jetting around).

My Resident Assistant said also what you said (the eyes are on the top), and I noticed this, too. I just wanted to make sure it was absolutely normal since I was already worrying about the jetting to and from the surface.

Anyway, thank you again for your responses.

I will hopefully not have to use this forum again because I will be able to buy him a real tank and little objects where he can hide or have darkness in case he is stressed. (Although I will use this forum if I feel something is going horribly wrong - though I doubt anything will.)

Thanks again,
Jammy
