i had a tiger salamander tadpole sharing a tank with a few small crayfish and 5 minnows. i was feeding him a variety of small water creatures that i netted out of a pond behind our house. all was good, but as the tadpole grew, he started going after the minnows. i thought they were too big and too fast for him, but in 2 days, all 5 were gone, and my tadpole was looking pretty plump. the next day he was dead.
could he just have overeaten? is this something i have to guard against in the future?
thx in advance for the advice...
