| Prepare fresh. Dissolve components in double-distilled, reverse-osmosis, or carbon-filtered water. Sterilization is not required.
Adjust the amounts of salts and buffers to ensure frog husbandry water quality parameters fall within acceptable ranges. For
example, in some X. laevis aquatic husbandry systems, water temperature is kept at ∼18°C, pH at 7.0–7.5, conductivity at 1.2–1.8 mS, and hardness at
∼200 ppm (CaCO3).
