I recently bought 1 male and 2 female African dwarf frogs and set them up in a fully planted aquarium with a heater and sponge filter that I have had going for around 3 to 4 months.
On the 27th of March, they decided to breed.
eggs hatched the next day and were absolutely tiny.
The tadpoles are carnivorous straight away and I had no infusoria cultured, so I put the tadpoles in tubs floating in adults aquarium, added some Java moss, and used a turkey baster to suck gunk( full of infusoria) from the sponge filter .
The tadpoles did great from this and are now large enough to eat freshly hatched brine shrimp.
I obviously have a way to go with these,but just thought I'd share how I have raised them this far
