I just got one and was wondering to feed it.I have heard that I can feed it frozen blood worms and that would work great becasue I buy them for my African Cichlids that I have in another tank.
What is the best thing to feed an Albino African Frog

Yep you sure can. I just throw the whole block in still frozen and its fine, the block quickly melts and the frogs are that gready they'll push the bloodworms in frozen or otherwise. However its probably a good idea to change the diet now and again, they also like brine shrimp and even tetra reptomin so long as you break the sticks up into pieces for them,
Hope that helps

do not give africans bloodworms!!!!! this can cause malawi bloat. what types of africans do you have? most all mbuna need a algea/veggie based diet.
good luck with the clawed frog, those things get monsterous!!!

I have lake Tanganyika Africans.I have had them for years and have had no problem with bloat,especially my Frontosa,he's big enough to eat a frozen block of bloodworms himself.
oh yeah, from what i have read alot of the bigger tangis grub on all types of snails and smaller fish- I wish I had a huuuuge tank to get a couple of fronts!!!!
I have 1 Front in a 75 gal. tank and he's enough I have about 13 other Africans in there with him.I have a pleco who is about 9 " long that puts the Front back in his place if he tries bullying the other fish around.
While juvenile, the african clawed frogs can do well on blood worms, but as they mature, you'll want larger foods. The adults miss a lot of smaller foods, leading to a mssier tank. I feed mine frozen community formula that comes in chunks that don't break down quickly, and earth worms. She particularly likes the earthworms.
I had albino african clawed frogs as a kid. I fed mine a staple diet of floating reptile sticks. They did great and bred all the time! I raised many baby frogs to adulthood. I supplemented th diet with some live foods, fish, insects/worms i found outside. You can also obviously use blood workms but the cube breaks up and the frogs ignore the little pieces. They can mess up the water.
