The community.
The Frog-O-Sphere? includes 2 aquatic mini frogs, Living Gravel? and a bamboo plant. Your new little buddies, the frogs, won?t outgrow the tank. Living Gravel? acts as a biological filter, converting excess food and waste into a soluble form that can be used by the bamboo plant. Just like trees in our environment, the bamboo absorbs liquid and gaseous elements and releases oxygen, which helps the frogs thrive.

Includes everything you need.
The Frog-O-Sphere? includes 2 African dwarf frogs and 1 bamboo plant. It also includes a 1-year supply of food, Living Gravel? with decorative rocks, and a cleaning tool.

Easy to care for.
Simply feed the frogs 2 pellets each 2 times per week. That?s it!

Adore my frogs

"My Frog-O-Sphere Ecosystem is wonderful! I can add to my menagerie of pets without having to spend extra time cleaning and feeding. I enjoy watching them swim around, as does my cat. :) Two pellets, two times a week - it doesn't get any easier. I give these as birthday gifts for kids so they can learn to have a pet and also learn the science behind it (though my colleagues really like them too). Another plus is ..." Read Full Review »

Cool Idea, Frog Deathtrap

"I saw this at Brookstone one day while shopping with a friend. I'd always liked frogs and thought the self-contained ecosystem idea was really neat, so I picked it out as my birthday gift. This was on July 1st. Just a few weeks later, the snail died. Ok, no problem, just need to get another one, it's free at this point anyway. So a week later two arrived in the mail, and they were both deposited into the tank. W..." Read Full Review »

FROG-O-KILLER!

★☆☆☆☆
1.0

    Pros

  • An easy way to kill frogs

    Cons

  • No Control Over Temp
  • No proper Cycled Filter
  • The Tank is too small

    Best Uses

  • Killing Frogs
 

"This tank is much too small for 2 African Dwarf Frogs (the species provided) and an Apple Snail. Apple snails can attain the size of a cricket ball or larger - and produce a massive amount of waste. The tank cannot be cycled properly, because of the lack of a proper filter. If the tank is not cycled …"  Read Full Review »

    Cons

  • Animals require care
  • Frogs don't do much

    Best Uses

"This seemed like a neat idea, and the kids loved it at first. They stared at the frogs for hours on end, and named the snail Stermit (it's a pokemon). We put it on the kitchen table.



All the frogs really do is sit there (like frogs do), so the kids lost interest after a few weeks. They do go back …"  Read Full Review »

    Pros

  • Easy To Setup

    Cons

  • Unreliable

    Best Uses

  • Everyday Use
 

"I bought this product because the frogs were cute and the tank was small enough to keep in our living space out of the reach of our cats.

It's great because it's compact and comes with everything included.

However, I have advanced experience with fish and aquatic life, and in my experience with …"  Read Full Review »

"Really, it is my mistake for not researching African Dwarf Frogs prior to purchasing this product. Turns out this is a terrible environment for these frogs. They are timid by nature and there is nowhere for them to hide which stresses them out. Also, two frogs require around 5 gallons of water, ther …"  Read Full Review »
