And here are the eggs from a few days ago. They have since turned into proper tadpoles inside the eggs.



And another batch from a couple of days ago:



And there's a third batch in the terrarium too. They slam out eggs - each female can lay 20+ at a time. I had to put an extra coconut hut+petri dish in the big terrarium today. Speaking of the terrarium, here it is:



And here are some of the parents:



The one on the left is "Daddy".

Here he is a few months ago, before his vocal sac slits had broken through fully (note how his throat is not so puffy in this photo):



And here are the ladies:

Very nice John. You need to enter that tank photo into the next contest ...its beautiful.

What kind of moss are you using on the ground and what kind of lighting are you using on the tank? Do you have any internal fans for air circulation? Its obviously a great display tank....what are you doing to keep the condensation off the glass? How long has this tank been growing in at this point?

Very nice John.

Should be duck weed. I was going to gather some last year from the drainage ditch behind my house and grow a bunch out. All it takes is water and light. The frog poop should do for any fertilizer needs.

Definitely duckweed. Huge help with nitrogen remediation.
