What kind of frog is this?

This is an albino african clawed frog. It has a disease called bloat. I have 11 of these frogs and one with this disease. It is a fluid build up under their skin from their kidneys not working right. There is really nothing that can be done for the frog except to aspirate the fluid from it's body. Some people choose this route but the fluid always returns. Even though they look so huge they can live a long happy life this way. Mine has had it for going on two years now. I would really like to know where this frog is located as I would like someone from my frog group to purchase it if possible so it can be cared for correctly.

Whatever it is, its a beauty!! Cute little thing! It would be much nicer to put it back where you found it so that the frog can have the quality of life that he was meant to have, and not spend the rest of his life trapped in a glass box. If you are looking for a pet frog, go to your local petsmart or petco. They have many different kinds of frogs, I have personally looked at them and I have to say that they are very beautiful. Gorgeous coloring. Perhaps you could invest in a ten gallon aquarium, all the necessary supplies for it, and then once you visit petsmart and pick out the kind of frog you want to buy, go home and research that kind of frog. That way you can provide it with the best care possible right from the start because you will have educated yourself about the species.

It is the same type as the one below it, a African Clawed Frog, but the one on top looks like something is majorly wrong with it. It looks bloated.

This is what http://fluffyfrog.com/FrogPondVetF.html#Bloat says:

"I've now received about a dozen letters with people describing that their frogs suddenly become bloated or swollen-looking. Several owners describe seeing what looks like pockets of air under their frog's skin, often starting in a small area but rapidly spreading. Others describe the entire frog appearing to balloon up suddenly. Often, this is accompanied by listless behavior. Often, these frogs die pretty quickly. From what I can tell, the condition may be caused by overwhelming infection, although in other places I've read that it may be related to their environment. I've seen it refered to as "dropsy". Dorota's Frogland has a section on sick frogs which describes this condition and has grizzly photos of affected dwarf clawed frogs. In one case, someone told me that their frog has appeared this way for more than a year, and otherwise seems to be fine. Because the condition seems to be so-often lethal...."

So it is common in this species of frog.

It's a very fat frog, trying to score with another frog that is of the same type and same sex

its an albino claw frog and chances are it was eather sick or just realy over fed
