Atelopus eggs!!!!
For the past few weeks, I have been working with other hobbyists in a Facebook group called The Captive Reproduction of Atelopus Project (****), created by Corey Wickliffe. The group includes Atelopus enthusiasts Ray Coderre (stemcellular), Colin Clark, Jason Soo-Juchems, Dennis Nilsson (he's behind Atelopus.com) and Dendroboard's moderator Shawn Harrington (sports_doc). As you can see, I'm the junior of the bunch...
Well ----->Egg mass was laid underwater by Shawn's female just outside the spray zone of the waterfall in his breeding tank, amongst the roots of the floating plants, after just one week.
Now for the feeding of tadpoles if they develop. His tank is only three weeks, thus no algae has developed yet... But this is another ball game.
I asked Shawn if I could share this with you. He welcomes all comments and/or suggestions.
Eric
