We finally figured out that you have to send away for the frog and got a tadpole in the mail about a week later. This is a tough little bugger, let me tell you. It has been knocked off of the dresser twice, by the cats and lost it's water both time. They can live up to two days without water, but not much longer. I have read that if taken care of the frog, it can live 8 to 30 years. I had no idea at the time of purchase, about the life span or I would have thought twice. But I have done some research and found that I can put the frog in our tank with the other fish when it is bigger. They may try to bite at the fish. They can eat bloodworms, brine shrimp or water fleas and pet stores carry this food. Good luck with your new pet. You will be spending a lifetime together!  -  Wednesday, June 06, 2007 Frog was enormous and lived for 13 years Reviewed By: H.W. (Plano, Tx) I got a Grow-A-Frog kit that looked exactly like this when I was in middle school. The tadpole was great, and a lot of fun! Just a warning, though... she got enormous and had to be moved to a 60 gallon tank. She also just wouldn't die. She lived for 13 years. Before you think of getting one of these for your kids, consider how you will feel if you've married off your kids and still have this silly frog. That's what happened to my parents!  -  Wednesday, June 10, 2009 sweet Reviewed By: Cam (lynnfield, massachusetts) i got one from school and its about 5 months old and i love it so much!  -  Thursday, May 15, 2008 Our frog just croaked Reviewed By: Gail Neustadt (Prest, PA) Bought our frog for our youngest son who was and still is highly allergic to animals. Mark was 10 years old at the time and now, at 33 years of age (you do the math), he was very distressed when I told him that his frog had died. We burried Sudrick (named after a basketball player) and also affectionately called Suds, next to the pond in aur backyard. Now the huse really is an empty nest!  -  Friday, April 17, 2009 Great pet! Reviewed By: Lauren (Boone, NC) I got one of these little guys for my 7th birthday... well she turned out to be not so little after the first few years. After she outgrew her first tank, I moved her into a 10 gallon and gave her a little more variety in her diet. I started feeding her bloodworms, freeze dried shrimp, and guppies. She loved the guppies. She continued to grow and so I bumped her up to goldfish. Then she outgrew that tank! I figured that out after she escaped one night.. I came back from the pet store with her goldfish to find that she was missing from the tank. After searching for an hour or so, I found her beneath my couch, covered in dog hair and carpet fibers. She was all dry and dirty and I was so scared that she was going to die, but she proved to be quite tough. I cleaned her off, put her back in the tank and she acted perfectly fine. So now, she's in my 55 gallon tank where she i still alive and happy! She is 12 years old and about 6 inches long! She has quite the personality. She always hides inside the big log in the tank and will try to bite the catfish if they mess with her..all of the fish learned very quickly not to mess with the new tank mate! I love that little frog.. :)
