Another batch of tadpoles!!!

[Jenste]

HERE WE GO AGAIN!!!

I have a new batch of tadpoles - -
I had Phantom (natural male) and Phoenix (albino female) in a breeding tank for about 10 days...and nothing. Phantom was latched onto her the whole time but she wasn't laying....then Monday night they finally laid - - I didn't have high hopes due to the fact that Phantom had probably been trying to fertilize the whole time ...

sure enough, the eggs looked unfertilized but I decided to give them some time...

went to check on them - - I have a couple little tadpoles swimming around!!!

so...here we go again!!!

[Ebony]

[Jenste]

Thank you!!! I am quite excited!!

[Jenste]

the tadpoles are a week old today! hopefully will be able to take a clear picture of them tomorrow

[Ebony]

Yay!!..Its amazing how much they grow in a week. I will be looking for the photo's.

Looking forward to seeing those new tadpoles.

[Jenste]

finally have a working camera so I can take pictures!!!

two weeks and 3 days old!

and just like the last batch, I have some "light" tadpoles and some "dark" tadpoles....the "dark" tadpoles from the last batch ended up being natural/marbled like their daddy and the "light" tadpoles ended up being reticulated albinos....lets see what they become this time!!!

Hey there, congrats on the tads!! I know this is an older post, but I wanted to know, what you do, to successfully get the tads to froglet stage..as far as feeding, any water changes, etc...any help is MUCH appreciated...Im trying to breed 2 pairs now, so hopefully, within a week or so (or less), I'll have eggs, or tads!!! In the past, I was usually able to successfully breed, but the tads always seemed to die off in 2-3 weeks ;o( - Tom

I'm going to try to get some clear enough pics, of mama & daddy (I haven't named them yet, as I want really cool, good names for them) - Tom
