It must surface to breathe, so keep water depth modest, and fit a tight lid as it climbs out readily. Albinos are slightly more light-sensitive, so provide shade. Males are smaller with dark forearm pads. Undemanding, tolerant of cool rooms and a delightfully greedy pet.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"SimsTF","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":64680676032889,"sku":"STF-FROG-ALB-DWARF-CLAW","price":20.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1026\/3124\/4153\/files\/STF-FROG-ALB-DWARF-CLAW.png?v=1790097093","url":"https:\/\/birchwoodaquatics.myshopify.com\/products\/albino-african-dwarf-clawed-frog-xenopus-laevis-3cm","provider":"Birchwood Aquatic Centre","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
