    Oh wow! That is actually really cool! I don't really know if I'd personally breed them but I'd love to see that. I'm totally going to watch in the minute. That is really unique! I love the thought of the parents carrying them. And yeah the 5 gallon is a temporary arrangement for the most part and he's pretty small. I'm thinking of looking for at least a 10 gallon or maybe even one of those special made terrariums that open from the front. I use those for my bearded dragon and tarantulas.

    This is one of my favorite photos. It's a male pumilio and two of the tadpoles have climbed on his back with two others waiting. This species actually raises its own tadpoles in bromiliad pools. The tadpoles can only survive on unfertilized eggs that the mother lays in each bromiliad. These are small species - with adults about the size of juveniles leucomela or auratus. I had pretty good success with this pair.

    Wow that is incredible! What an amazing shot! It's not often I've seen parental care in amphibians. The only other one I knew about until now was the African bullfrog
