How do you guys feed your frog? dropping pellets into the water seems to make the water a tad cloudy....

to specify, i drop five or six pellets in to the water, and he can only catch two or three at a time and the rest of them sit at the bottom.

What kind of frog are we talking about?

An albino ACF female, right?
Most people feed them on a pelleted diet, with small treats like bloodworms or earthworms every couple weeks or so. Some people are even starting to experiment with diets of ghost shrimp.
Maybe you could try dropping them in a few at a time in smaller numbers and make sure he gets them all? Just scoop up uneaten food in a turkey baster or gravel vaccumm.
Some poeple feed them on feeder guppies too, but these might be a bit steeper price than the pelleted diet.

Hey, thanks a bundle! you've helped me out a lot lately, I really appreciate it. The turkey baster thing is a really good idea. I'll definately keep that in mind.

i usually hand feed my frogs so there not much chance of uneaten food rotting away, if im feeling lazy i just drop the food in and remove any uneaten stuff after 30-60 minutes
