Hello and thanks for viewing my post.
About 2 1/2 months ago I was removing the cover to my pool because I needed a new liner installed and noticed a lot of tadpoles swimming around. I didn't have the heart to suck them up with the pump so I went out and bought a 20gallon fish tank and rescued as many as I could. I will say that the past few months of watching them transform has been very interesting and I began seeing frogs about 3 weeks ago. I have done some reading on them I realized I needed to remove them so I bought a 10gallon terrarium and began moving them over as they climbed out of the water.
I now have about 20 in the tank and there seems like there is plenty of room but I am assuming that there should only be X amount for this size tank. I have been buying fruit flys and recently began buying small crickets online so I can be sure they eat ok. Other than the little bit of reading I have done I know nothing about frogs. My goal was to keep them long enough so they can grow and then release them in a nearby park. I have grown fond of them as it is pretty cool to see them come up from a tadpole but I don't want them to die either. My tadpole rank still has about 20 of various stages so I am concerned about getting to many and causing all of them problems.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated. I am in Baltimore, MD and I believe they are gray tree frogs although some are green. They are all about the same size and less then an inch right now.
