I'm wondering if my aquatic frogs are healthy or not

I was told on as website that for healthy frogs, if you put your finger near them, they are supposed to swim away. Well when i put my finger inside the tank, they are like meh, they don't swim away, they just continue playing. Could it be that they see me all the time since the tank is next to my computer, that they got used to me. Am i an ornament to them? I'm wondering how bad exactly is their vision I've always wondered if they could see me on my chair(tank is 2 feet Away) I was told they use lateral sensors and not vision that much

I suspect they are healthy in that they stay at the bottom a lot. The website said healthy frogs stay at the bottom of the tank a lot

Also, mad since roommate put my frogs frozen bloodworms in the fridge, I threw it out, cause when i refroze it, it wasn't the same consistency

Well, you are an ornament to us, so it makes sense that your frogs see you in the same way.

Maybe frogs want to eat live fireflies so they can glow? Maybe catch some and put them with the frogs to see what happens.

Well if you stopped playing with their buttholes they wouldn't get excited every time you stick your finger in the water.

Dangle your todger in! Post the emergency room report when you go in to have a frog removed!
