    There's no obvious explanation for the eggs moulding. One possibility is that they're infertile; another is that the eggs may get damaged when you transfer them to the net. When I bred them in the past I either moved the frogs to a separate tank or introduced a lot of live Daphnia to distract the frogs' attention from the eggs so they could develop and then transferred the tadpoles.

    Don't be discouraged. Anyone attempting to breed these frogs for the first time should be prepared for frustration and disappointment. The main qualities required for success are patience and persistence.

    There's a lot of detailed and well-illustrated information on rearing these tadpoles at: ADF Tadpole Development - 96366

    I have successfully bred ADFs before. I used a turkey baster to take the young tadpoles or eggs and transferred them all to a breeder box inside the main tank. After 2 weeks, I transferred them to a 2.5 gallon tank (with a net) and let them finish changing there.
