Critter Care Game Tutorial: Part 2, Frog

Critter Care is a fun game that can earn you instant clams as well as up to 15 clams of salary. In Critter Care, you work in a lab and help take care of animals. You feed them, give them water, clean the cages, and help keep them healthy.

There are 5 animals in Critter Care you can take care of: fish, frog, pig, pigeon, and rat. In this tutorial, I will show you how to take care of the xenopus frog.

First, go to the Critter Care lobby and click on the clipboard that says "frog". Next, click on a frog tank to begin. On the right of the screen, you will see a little white piece of paper. Click on it to see the animal's history report (and I don't mean on the Civil War).

The Report will tell you when was the last time the frog had been fed, the tank had been cleaned, the filter had been changed, and a scale that will help you determine whether the frog is underweight, overweight, or at a healthy weight.
  • If the filter has not been changed in a while, or if the tank looks foggy, change the filter. Simply click the filter icon and drag it onto the tank.
  • If there is any green grime on the tank, clean it. Click and drag the brush onto the tank, You may have to do this multiple times until the green disappears.
  • Check the frog's weight. If it is a healthy weight, and was fed 1 day ago, give it one bunch of food. If it is healthy weight and was fed four days ago, give it two bunches of food.
  • If the frog is underweight, give it one extra bunch of food than you normally would; if the frog is overweight, give it one less.

Reasons to Red Tag:


  • The tank has not been cleaned in a while (at least 4 days), but there is no green grime. This means the frog is not excreting waste, and there is something wrong.
  • The tank is very dirty even though it was cleaned just a day ago. This means the frog is excreting too much waste.
  • The frog is overweight or underweight.
  • The frog has Frog Bloat. See image below.
  • The frog has Frog Skin Rash. See image below.
  • Once you have correctly tagged all four tanks, click "submit lab report". You will instantly earn 15 clams. Once you have done this 3 times, correctly tagging 12 tanks in all, you will receive 3 clams of salary and a total of 45 instant clams.

    Good luck! Stay tuned for the next critter care tutorial!
