First of all, most information for Xenopus is highly inaccurate. Are you ABSOLUTELY POSITIVE that it is an ammonia burn, or other infections? What is the temperature? The information about clawed frogs like warm water is the reason why so many are susceptible to bacterial infections. Native South Africa IS NOT TROPICAL. It has warm summers, but wet, cool winters. The time when Xenopus breed. The temperature should stay below 78, even better lower than 76, or your frogs will be VERY susceptile to dropsy and bacterial infections. I lost all my frogs this way, and it was too late once I learned some current information.

What size of tank is this?
