clawed frogs - tadpoles
- Thread starter chaimdov
- Start date
I once had clawed frogs and they bred several times.
I kept a batch of about 30 tadpoles.
I fed them dried nettles leaves reduced in fine powder, but also yeast (not too much at one time because water pollution may be dangerous).
Finally, I gave them finely powdered fish food and green algae obtained scratching dirty glasses of an aquarium.
I ended with 8 froglets.
Caution ! this species can colonize ponds and marshes in temperate country. Do not release any outdoors if you have more success than you expected.

I always used blanched then liquidised spinach, put it in some tight material then squeezed the juice into the tank. Use decent airation to keep it in suspension, spirulina and chollela powder work fine aswell.

Shane douglas:with axolotls would I basically have to keep buying and buying new axolotls to prevent inbred breeding which costs a lot of money??+1

Thorninmyside:Not necessarily but if you’re wanting to continue to grow your breeding capacity then yes. Breeding axolotls isn’t a cheap hobby nor is it a get rich quick scheme. It costs a lot of money and time and deditcation+1

Clareclare:Would Chinese fire belly newts be more or less inclined towards an aquatic eft set up versus Japanese . I'm raising them and have abandoned the terrarium at about 5 months old and switched to the aquatic setups you describe. I'm wondering if I could do this as soon as they morph?+1
