YES! distilled water. ( don't let the water level drop below 1/2. )
The are very good parents !
The male will let the tadpole ( when it's ready ) wriggle on to its back.
HE will transport it to a film canister.
When there, the female will deposit unfertilized eggs into the canister (s) for the tads 1st important meals
I leave the tads in the film canisters for about for about 2 weeks.

I remove them and raise them outside the tank.

Or, you cant just leave them there.

I' ll check back with you later

Your choice

Thanks. I'll go ahead and leave that wriggler in the tank. What about the three bad eggs? Based on the size of the embryo if the other three eggs had been viable they would have already had some type of growth to them. The three bad eggs are situated in such a way that I can get a thin pair of scissors in between them and the embryo and cut them out.

On a side note; Several weeks ago I bought three R. ventrimaculata "Iquiitos" - UE line. They are really cool. They look similar to my Varadero. I'm already noticing a difference between Imitator and Vent behavior. My Imitators are out a lot and are really squirreley while my Iquitos and FG Vents tend to hide more and come out at certain times of the day.

We've talked about Pumilio before and the one morph/locale that I've always wanted was Blue Jeans. It's a hard Pumilio to come by and they are expensive. Also, there are some sellers that try to pass-off other species as true Blue Jeans. Apparently, there are different locations of this particular species and the one I've got my sights set on is the one from Guapiles. Take a look below - this link was from a Dendroboard post.
