    Re: dkk08 Breeding Project and 3 Guards

    >"< Breeder looks awesome. Can take a pict. of the centre where your waterfall is?
    1st Guard worms? Is it some kinda food chamber thingy?
    2nd Guard - I like this best, got the same plant on the left as you which is on LED light sensor (auto mode) at the moment.
    3rd Guard Froggies - any updates?

    It's reaching almost end of the year. Having you got the bio-data of the frogs as in the reproduction cycle?
    In Kampong, usually frog breed more during end of the year (rainfall). I hope you have many many tadpoles.

    There's no waterfall in the breeder tank...

    1st Guard > the worms are food, its not for breeding worms...
    2nd Guard > plant on the left is Maiden's Fern
    3rd Guard > it was updated in post 60 on page 3

    well the reproduction cycle can be mimic, not necessary to follow the natural cycle... but of cause it would be better to do so...

    Re: dkk08 Breeding Project and 3 Guards

    the worms are mealworms, they look redish because of the food that they feed on (carrots and some fish food with lots of beta carotene...

    Re: dkk08 Breeding Project and 3 Guards

    you can imitate rainfall by installing a mister which can be set on a timer to "rain" for 3-4 hours straight or you can do it the more economical way by using a powerhead and rainbar in a big toyogo box... of course a lot of luck is needed too

    Re: dkk08 Breeding Project and 3 Guards

    They're pretty easy to keep, as long as you give them ample space and food they're pretty happy frogs... as for froglets you can try mealworms or grasshoppers... and no I do not have any tadpoles yet

    well unless you're prepared to invest on small feeders, you can look for bro fuel for cultured wingless fruit flies, very suitable for froglets of any type

    Re: dkk08 Breeding Project and 3 Guards

    I don't know if this information is useful or not. Please use for reference only.

    In Kampong times, we used to keep about 5x 30cm tanks and 2x dragon urn (Waist height big clay tank); well that's what we used to call them. Night time we will go through all the mud roads for tyre tracks. Armed with torch lights, we go for tracks which are filled with water after rain. We would scoope all the tadpoles out and put in the tanks. Now the tanks are exposed to direct sunlight inorder to grow algae. However we use fish bread (those hard bread that you would buy from fish shops) to feed the tadpoles. As I am too young back then, not sure if they will feed on the algae or not but never did we once feed worms to them as the worms will strangle the tadpoles even before they eat them.

    1. I should think these breads are not easily found nowadays. If you can find it, you have to crush to smaller pieces. Don't smell that bad, it's whats leftover the following day that smells.
    2. Don't feed tubi-worms. (Warning: tadpole strangling)
    3. Micro-pellets like Bao Zhen Hong should do the trick nicely. (quite fine). Else, go for baby food No.2 to No.3. Powder form. I used to buy this from North Serangoon, one of the shops after Rainbow.

    So the story goes, we feed the tadpoles until they have legs and started to jump out of the tank, from that point, they are on their own. Some being hunted down to be eaten whilst the rest keeps the area free of bugs. So the cycle just continues. We save the tadpoles, they keep out mosquitoes and flies. ^^ The croaking sound is lullaby to us at night. Keep us at peace to their rhythum.
