Frogs are amphibians, which means that they spend a large portion of their lives in or around water. However, frogs can only survive in fresh water as salt water as salt water is more concentrated than their bodily fluids. they will lose water rapidly and gain more salt than their body processes can handle, leading to their deaths.

Why does a frog begin its life cycle in the water and then move onto land?

The frog is an mainly air breathing amphibian which also HAD gills but as the frog grew they (the gills) covered over. It is also said to have two lives (one off the land and one on land.) They go into the water to get wet and come out after a while. A toads skin is dry and a frogs skin is "slimy" which is really water. The frog is also cold-blooded so it must heat up OUT of the water and cool down in the water.

You found a little green brown frog in your yard can he go in a fish tank with your goldfish?

No. The frog will foul the fish tank and frogs do not usually live in water. Most frogs like to be in moist places and will eventually die (drown) if kept permanently in water. My advice is to return the frog to where you found it. That is where it chose to be so put it back and leave it alone if it is no immediate obvious danger.


How deep does water need to be for frogs?

If your frog is a completely aquatic frog, the water should be deep enough to swim around in, like a regular fish. But if your frog is a half land half water frog, the water shouldn't be TOO deep. It should be shallow enough to let your frog's head break the surface, and you need to have sticks or ridges to help your frog get out of the water.
