spinach seems to be a great tadpole food. just wilt a few leaves, throw it in the tank. high in calcium.

algae pellets should be a good food with a wide spectrum of nutrients.

that's what I use. spinach and pellets.

weird. it sorta does sound genetic. i was wondering just today how all of these frogs could possibly mutate from little grape like globs into actual frogs. you can see through them when they are tadpoles. the process must be pretty mindbendingly complex. and also fairly cute. mine are just sprouting legs.
