This is hard to explain, but i will try. Recently i noticed one of my ADFs body changing shape. While you read this, imagine looking at a frog from the side.

His neck (the portion of his back behind his head) seemed to flatten out. His back, from about mid body toward the rear, seemed to get much thicker. Where the flattened out portion meets the thicker portion there is a sharp point almost seeming to poke through his back on each side, but the point looks sharper on his right side.

Has anyone seen this before? If it will help i can try to post some pics. In the mean time i would appreciate any information you can provide.

I have two frogs in a 10 gallon tank. they both seem to act normally but these bumps on the one frog worry me.

thanks
