A few weeks ago we got our first shipment of African Dwarf frogs from wild creations, yes that’s right, we now are selling frogs in eco-aquariums!
Linda Putting together an aquarium
Frog Facts:
- Each aquarium is a complete aquatic eco-system that requires no additional chemicals, filter or aeration.
- Aquariums need water replenished only twice a year using fresh, bottled spring water.
- “Living” gravel, which acts as the natural filter to the aquarium, does not need to be (and should not be) cleaned.
- Each Aquarium includes two male, adult African dwarf frogs (Hymenochirus Curtipes to be exact), which will not outgrow the aquarium.
- Frogs are fed only 2 times per week.
- Average life span of frogs is 2 -4 years (or longer), with proper care.
- Each aquarium includes at least one snail, which acts as the janitor to clean the algae and excess food

We have 3 store frogs, and we need your help in naming them. The winner will receive an Early Work gift certificate. You can enter at the store, or by e-mail, send your name, phone number, and 3 name suggestions to earlyworkstaff@yahoo.com .
We love these little guys and we trust the company who distributes them. This is a great way for kids to learn about nature, eco-systems, and responsibility. Teachers, this would make a very low maintenance, yet highly educational, and very fun classroom pet.

This is definitely the oddest, and most exciting thing I have ever checked in during my years at Early Work. Linda and I enjoyed the process so much, we decided that it would make a great birthday party for kids ages 7 & up! Each child would leave the birthday party with their very own self-assembled eco-aquarium! We’re still working out the specific details, but if you are interested give us a call (707-765-1993) and we will be happy to book our first ever frog party!
Each aquarium is 29.99 and includes 2 frogs, 1 snail, “living” gravel, decorative gravel, 1 decorative rock, and 1 bamboo plant. A year’s supply of food only costs $3.99, and we have an assortment of other accessories available at the store.
